    2026-03-21 15:29:31

    Backcountry Skiing Canada is launching its 2026 User Survey, and we want to hear from you. Whether you are a dedicated splitboarder, a weekend ski tourer, or a seasoned ski mountaineer, your feedback is the compass that helps us navigate the evolving needs of our community.

    This short survey takes less than five minutes to complete and consists of fewer than 20 questions. By sharing your insights, you help us refine our gear reviews, route descriptions, and safety resources to better serve your adventures in the Rockies, the Coast Mountains, and beyond.

    To show our appreciation for your time, every eligible participant will be entered into our grand prize draw. This year, we are giving away the award-winning MEC Tour 32 Ski Pack—a "Gear of the Year" favorite known for its lightweight design and specialized avalanche tool compartment. Additionally, we are offering 100 annual memberships to the Backcountry Skiing Canada Members Area, granting winners premium access to over 300 detailed route descriptions and maps.

    Don’t miss your chance to win high-performance gear while helping us build a better resource for the community. The draw is open to residents of Canada and the USA, with winners selected on April 15th, 2026. Head over to the full the survey and enter to win! Click HERE.
