ON SKIING WITH DOGS
January 17, 2023 20 comments
A person’s best friend. You know where we are going: dogs in the backcountry.
Many words come to mind, like liability, poop, sit, stay, treat, dog-person, and
cat-person. But damn, they are lovable. Do they belong out there with us?

DON’T TAKE AN INTRO AVALANCHE COURSE JUST YET
January 9, 2023 10 comments
Make the most of the time and resources you invest in avalanche education. Hone
your basic backcountry skiing skills and fitness level, and prep your brain for
the information download before taking that introductory avalanche class.

TWO RULES TO BREAK: NO STRANGERS AND NO GUIDES
February 20, 2023 4 comments
I should have discarded two outdated rules years ago: never go with strangers or
a guide. Here’s to a growth mindset at the Sunrise Hut with eight strangers and
guides, Rob Coppolillo and Nino Guagliano.

THE SNOWPACK PICTURE UP NORTH WITH GRANT STATHAM
February 4, 2023 4 comments
British Columbia’s Snowpack has been touchy this winter, particularly in the
Interior. We spoke with Canmore-based avalanche forecaster Grant Statham to
better understand in a general sense why this season has been atypical in the
Interior.

* JULBO’S MONTEBIANCO 2 WITH THE REACTIV 1-3 HIGH CONTRAST LENS: A REVIEW
by Jason Albert February 20, 2023
by Jason Albert February 20, 2023
The Julbo Montebianco 2 offers great eye protection from intense sun. And fit
with the Reactiv 1-3 High Contrast prescription lens; this is eyewear I can
use from dawn to dusk.
* QUESTING WITH THE HYPERLITE MOUNTAIN GEAR HEADWALL 55
by Austin Mallet February 20, 2023
by Austin Mallet February 20, 2023
Now beyond cult-follower status, Hyperlite Mountain Gear (HMG) remains a
staple of the backpacking light crowd. Amongst the ski touring community,
they have a following too. With the Headwall 55, they introduce their first
ski-specific pack that is a great companion for overnighters and single-day
tours.
* FINDING COMFORT AND EXPANDING MY HORIZONS WITH THE DPS PAGODA TOUR RP 112
by Jason Albert February 19, 2023
by Jason Albert February 19, 2023
Big and floaty and so so … so fine in ideal powder. This can be said about
many skis, but, in particular, it is true of the DPS Pagoda Tour RP 112. And
it turns out, this ski just flat out makes less-than-ideal powder more fun
too.
* FAST AND LIGHT AND $: THE ARC’TERYX ALPHA LIGHTWEIGHT PARKA
by Aidan Whitelaw February 19, 2023
by Aidan Whitelaw February 19, 2023
The Arc’teryx Alpha Lightweight Parka is a piece to keep you toasty when the
pace stalls out on the skinner, flying downhill on the descent, or an
emergency bivy is required.
* SAMAYA 2.0 TENT: A REVIEW
by Sam Hennessey February 17, 2023
by Sam Hennessey February 17, 2023
Sometimes, we place a premium on roominess. In other situations, it’s about
minimizing weight, space, and some comfort. But in both instances, it’s nice
to stay dry. The Samaya 2.0 tent offers a significant step forward for
lightweight, high-performance shelters in the high mountain environment.
* BLIZZARD ZERO G LT 80
by Aidan Whitelaw February 16, 2023
by Aidan Whitelaw February 16, 2023
In the just-beyond-race-weight ski segment, the Blizzard Zero G LT 80 (yeah
80mm underfoot) renders a steady ski that harnesses that great Zero G edge
hold in a trimmed-down package ready for all sorts of big mission skiing
(except the missions for the real deep snow).
