what do you need in the backcountry

@pocketcube

The backcountry is the forest and wilderness area away from the ski restor itself. We use the lift to get up high and then ski back down through the trees away from all of the people, cars, and development. Backcountry skiing beats downhill/alpine skiing by a longshot since it's a good way to get close to Nature, etc.
