Our guided tours to the backcountry are a proposal for those that love to discover skiing or snowboarding from another place and learn a new activity such as bc skiing or splitboarding where we do not depend on ski resorts and we can discover new mountains.
Moving with your own traction and always connecting with nature. We take you to different spots so you can discover or continue perfecting your technique in this beautiful activity.
Beginners (Cerro Catedral):
You need to be able to ski blue slopes, no off-piste experience required. Introduction to the activity, correct use of the equipment, ascent technique with skins on and off the piste, search with DVA (use of shovel, dva and probe safety equipment).
Intermediates:
Capable of being able to go down all the slopes of a ski resort and experience off-piste
No experience in the activity is required. We leave the ski resort and go find other mountains to ski. Different spots, with our blood traction.
Imagine arriving at a place without noise, removing the skins from your skis and going down tracing your descent path.
We also add concepts such as the correct use of the equipment, climbing techniques, handling of the safety kit (DVA, shovel and probe), basic notions of risk management in avalanche terrain.
Advanced:
You need to be able to go down all the slopes of a ski resort, experience in off-piste and experience in the activity. Freeride look for those spots where we ensure powder laps, new places, other landscapes, gullys or big open slopes, let’s go with that plan. A full Backcountry experience in Bariloche.
