Turns are best when earned
en
Reddit's OG off-piste sub for all things backcountry skiing/splitboarding. Those two, non-detachable low speed quads are the best season pass you'll ever own. We encourage posts re: human powered uphill/downhill shralping, TR's, pics, bc gear, avalanche tools/techniques/training/technology Mech. assisted tours into the bc, (Sidecountry, snomo, cat & heli bumps) sometimes accepted. Slowshoeing, lift access, your recent park footy, mountaineering & non-snow wilderness adventures, not here.
For people who earn their turns or just enjoy the winter out of the resorts.
