BC 101: Begin To Skin, In-Store Clinic

Ready to skip the lift lines and start earning your turns? A backcountry ski or split board lets you make tracks uphill as well as down. This clinic is tailored to backcountry beginners. The group will discuss equipment basics from Backcountry Nordic, to 3-Pin, to Telemark, to Alpine Touring – as well as how to use climbing skins. They will share clothing secrets to keep you cool when climbing and warm when descending, and examine ways to efficiently pack your gear. Learn why having fun and being smart in the backcountry goes hand in hand with your awareness of snow safety. RSVP required as space is limited to 25. Call 541-385-8080 to RSVP.
