Resource Playlist: Backcountry Skiing in the Northeast

We’re working on compiling a list of resources for those looking to explore the backcountry by skis and splitboards this winter. If you have a resource you’d like to see added, please comment or email mappyhour@outdoorfest.com. We also seriously encourage everyone to take an Avalanche course before heading out into the backcountry.
