Martin Volken and his co-authors provide skiers with all the tools and
\nknowledge they need to safely and successfully travel in the mountains. The
\nguide features intermediate-to-advanced techniques for ski touring and ski
\nmountaineering, from planning wilderness trips to perfecting turns in rolling
\nterrain and mastering uphill climbing. For those skiers ready for a more
\ntechnical, high alpine environment, they draw on traditional mountaineering
\nskills, including roped climbing, setting protection anchors, using ice axes,
\nclimbing on bare rock, and more. <\/p>\n
In addition to mastering techniques, Backcountry Skiing also features
\ninformation on recent evolutions in ski equipment; avalanche safety tips; a
\nprimer on mountain weather and glaciers, trip planning tools, a discussion of
\nemergency situations, nutrition and fitness advice, and winter camping basics. <\/p>\n
Throughout this guide, a special emphasis is put on being well-informed and
\nmaking good decisions-whenever you strap on your skis and skins and head out
\ninto the backcountry.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
