Tour
From dawn patrols to yurt trips, endless pow to crowd-free skintracks, the best skiing is in the backcountry. We’re named Backcountry for a reason—when we started selling gear back in 1996, our focus was touring equipment. Whether you live for the uphill, the downhill, or both, this year’s selection of touring gear has you covered.
