looking for an all around at ski for backcountry only, reasonably light, good in powder but won't fold when conditions firm up. Considering G3Saint or Reverend, Karhu Storm BC, BD Havoc. which is most versatile for Wasatch skiing?

I can vouch for the Reverend's performance. They are great all around skis, wide enough to give you some float in fresh snow, quick edge to edge for tighter spots, and with enough sidecut and stiffness to get you through the harder stuff (I skied them in Vermont and can vouch for that). I've never skied the Saint, but it is basically a lighter version of the Reverend, so if I were you, that's what I would go for...
