I have acquired some 3 pin Telemark cable bindings made by Rottefella. I plan to match these with some new Madshus Annum skis and
some Scott or Garmont Excursion boots.
This is a boot that many forum users have recommended to me as I venture into my early...
An account of a brief sojourn out back last month - our only real chance at classic mid-winter conditions for 2020.

I have climbed up Mulhacen peak in Spain but I am looking at BC XC ski touring there one day.

Hi. I went to Mt. Cobbler in December 2018 . It was a long drive into Lake Cobbler from Melbourne.

Hi.
Has anyone trekked/skied into Hut No.3 from the seasonal closure gate at the top of Carter's road near TOMAHAWK HUT? . You 'd need a half decent vehicle , chains and a chainsaw but it looks possible. Conversely with a big low dump of fresh snow, skiing from the...
Hi
The Bluff Hut in the VIC ALPS has a perpetual shortage of Firewood. In Winter it would be crap in that hut with no fire.
What do experienced BC skiers do if they are basing themselves at the Bluff Hut or snow camping next to it for a spot of BC XC ski...
Hi
Has anyone skied the terrain around Lost Plain, Mt. Arbuckle, Mt. Reynard and the Wellington Plains?
What is winter access out there like? There is no snow clearing on the Tamboritha or Howitt roads . What about skiing past the winter gate on the...
Hi
I have discovered a place that intrigues me: The Dargo High Plains.Yes, I know I am a bit late at finding this area. Having obtained various maps of the area I can now see that the seasonal road closure gate to the south of Lankey Plains Hut is located ...
