You don't have to be an extreme skier to enjoy telemark ski touring and mountaineering - there is room of all levels of skiers in the backcountry. It not about jumps and flips, it about being out in the winter wonderland we have in the NW with good friends and great snow.

Backcountry Risks
Touring in the backcountry has inherent risks that you assume if you venture out. Please be a responsible backcountry skier by learning how to access avalanche forecasts, read terrain and maps, and learn how to find safe routes to reach your destination. Be prepared with the right equipment and practice rescue techniques and beacon usage. Don't put others at risk by poor decision-making on your part. It is not someone else's responsibility -it's yours.
