list of things that you should do and look after while you are out on a Backcountry skiing trips:
·
Take the help of a mountaineering
guide and do not rely on a person who has no experience in
skiing. It is also important that you start your journey with a comfortable
backcountry pack, big enough to hold camera, snacks or other small items, for a
comfortable journey.
·
Tool kit and first aid kit are other
important things you should take along. You must be ready with a mountaineering
first aid kit and a tool kit with all spare parts to fix any problem on your
poles or skis.

While skiing, if anyone in a group
feels unsafe or tired, then the group should reassess.

You must wear big
goggles that allow lot of space between your face and the. These goggles work
far better than the stylish ones and keep the warmth from the face from fogging
up the goggles.

and rock climbing courses. Thereby, taking care of the above given steps, under
