Replying to Hiking long distances
Anyone got any gear advice for long hikes - i.e. we are hiking the back bowls at fernie in a week - which is like hiking a pipe only steeper and about 12 times longer.
Most of the people I'm going with are snowboarders - so they can hike a hell of a lot easier than us guys wearing ski boots.
Is it worthwile to ride with one of those backpacks that can carry skis? Crampons? Skins?
Anyone have any tips?
