so im going to be skiing in montana for the second season in a row. ive skied pow, hiked, dropped cliffs built jumps all that side country jazz. me and my friends are trying our hand in touring. now i know alot of people who skin and things and ive looked into that new touring plate and touring adapters for alpine bindings and ive skied the marker touring binding many times and i dont like being off my ski.
now touring and skins are expensive so ive been toying with the idea of snow shoes. ive done my research and found a 25 inch mountaineering pair that will fit ski boots.
my question is is it really practical to buy them and be able to get a taste of some interesting backcountry? im not trying to do the longest most technical tours and ill more then likely invest in the new touring plate and skins next year, just want some feedback on backcountry with snow shoes.
