Re: Minimum viable gear for resort uphill

Re: Old 2-buckle t2 as a step up from excursion?

On Instagram there's an account where a father and daughter travel all over Alberta visiting it's local ski areas. Pretty interesting trip into rural Alberta from a skiers perspective. I'm sure 95 percent of these places only ever see locals. It's hard to believe these ski areas exist but somehow th...
