      DESTINATIONS

      Sure we love ski touring in our home turf here in the Kootenays and Selkirks of British Columbia. We also like to get out and visit other backcountry meccas like the Wasatch Mountains in Utah, Colorado 14ers, the Canadian Rockies and maybe even one day, Hokkaido, Japan. Here's where you'll find our trip reports and stories on the various journeys we take to follow our passion for backcountry skiing. We've just begun this section of the site so check back every now-and-again for updates. As always, your input is key so tell us what you think in the Forums.
