Description
Tired of being left behind in the backcountry by your more skilled telemarking friends? Powder, crud, crust, and wind-blown snow will be our classroom as we tour the Wasatch practicing telemark skiing technique. Both telemark and parallel turns will be investigated on a variety of terrain including bowls, faces, trees, and steeps. In addition, we will learn and practice safe avalanche skills as we travel in the backcountry. Please be familiar with the basic telemark turn.
