Ice skating Evolution Basin

Thanks for the heads up..That is way cool!! People are simply amazing at what they can do.

I stumbled across this video recently also.

Incredible and totally hairball. I guess he knows what he's doing….

That was great! I saw a video last winter of people doing the same thing.

Manufacturer of OAC skates, X-Trace universal bindings & some models of Altai Skis (not a retailer so pages are not that user friendly but you'll find the stuff.)

Here's one from last year (which was a very big year for backcountry skating due to the low early snowfall amounts) which I like even more. Same guy.

Check this one:

Nicest video I found about tour skating!
Pity the season is so short! because this is truly a fantastic way to travel in the backcountry.

In the French & Indian War Maj. Robert Rodgers and his Rangers attacked a French & Indian settlement and escaped by strapping ice skates to their shoes and skating south down Lake Champlain.

Guess that's the first example of their motto, "Rangers lead the way!"

Bet the French & Indians were furious.
