Backcountry skiing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Backcountry skiing near the Arlberg Austria Backcountry skiing is skiing in a sparsely inhabited rural region over ungroomed and unmarked slopes or pistes . More importantly, the land and the snow pack are not monitored, patrolled, or maintained. Fixed mechanical means of ascent such as ski lifts are typically not present. Backcountry skiing can be highly dangerous due to the avalanche risk, the exhaustion from the possible climb, and the often steep terrain involved. Other hazards include cliff or rock hazards and tree wells . Backcountry skiing is often associated with " ski touring " and " ski mountaineering ", and sometimes also with " extreme skiing The terms "backcountry skiing", "ski touring", and "off-piste skiing" are often used interchangeably, but they are not identical in scope. "Backcountry skiing" is more commonly used in North America, while "ski touring" is more commonly used in Europe, but the distinctions are often ignored. "Off-piste" skiing can refer to any skiing a few metres away from marked trails and slopes, whereas "backcountry" skiing refers to skiing which is not near marked slopes at all, or cannot be accessed by ski-lifts. Backcountry skiing can also involve multi-day trips through snow camping or the use of mountain huts where available. Ski touring and ski mountaineering can take place in either front country or backcountry regions, so neither term overlaps backcountry skiing completely. Backcountry skiing and off-piste skiing are terms which specify where the skiing occurs, while ski touring, ski mountaineering, and extreme skiing are terms which describe what type of skiing is being done.

Backcountry mountains are usually hard to reach locations where conventional means of ascent (ski lifts, cable cars etc.) are not present. Instead, the back country skiier will have to use snow cats, snowmobiles, snow shoes, ski/snow board boots, or skins. Once the peak is reached or any other location on the mountain seems skiable the descent may begin.

Backcountry Skiing in Central Colorado Spring backcountry skiing in Colorado is an incredible experience, and the Aspen area has tons of options. Author Louis Dawson harvests a serving of corn snow. By Louis Dawson During winter, Colorado backcountry snow is a frozen wave frequently set in motion as fearful avalanches by nothing more than the punch of an elk's hoof or the cut of a skier's stem. While you can enjoy Colorado backcountry skiing in winter, most expers admit it's a tough time to really get the goods. They'll tell you, however, that come springtime you can get an incredible amount of safe backcountry skiing in Colorado. During spring the snow compacts under its weight like a fallen cake. Combine such dense firn with a daily rhythm of freeze and thaw, and spring avalanche danger is easy to predict and avoid. Just ski or snowboard in the morning after a cold clear night and you're eliminating almost all avalanche hazard. What's more, the springtime snow surface is a matrix of jumbo crystals known as corn-snow. Billiard table smooth and easier to ski than the finest groom, corn is the best snow on the planet. But wait, perfect snow begs for grand terrain. Where to find it? Look no farther than Colorado. As if ripped by a gigantic claw, the Colorado Rocky Mountains are cleaved with thousands of basins, clefts and aretes a nirvana for adventure skiers. The key is to get high. Above the trees, an infinity of legendary ski and snowboard descents await your edges.
