New to the area moved to Moscow from upstate NY originally from Cincinnati Ohio. I’m also new to backcountry skiing planning to start out very slow, can’t wait to get some proper training.
Hi everyone, I moved to Hope, ID a year ago and after having a baby in May am hoping to finally get to use my backcountry gear this winter! I am an intermediate skier but brand new to backcountry. I have so far only used it in the off season at the resort. I’ve had a hard time finding resources on where to go so I’m really excited to check out this website.
It's about 5 miles or so up: but Strong Creek is a great tour out of Hope, then up to the summit of Roundtop. Some of the best views of the lake! Welcome!
Hi all! Considering a move to the panhandle and looking for more information on the touring. This website is a great resource!
I really appreciate this site and all of the resources. Thanks for all of the hard work and thoughtful postings.
Hi! Moving to CDA this fall and wanted to get a jump on getting familiar with the backcountry terrain in the area.
Hi all, Spokane, Sandpoint and Portland (soon to be Seattle) resident here coming through because I saw mention of this website in a magazine in Sandpoint on an ID avalanche center section. No backcountry experience, only resort skiing but looking to get into it soon in the next couple years!
Hi all, I've moved back home to Spokane for at least a few months and am excited to tour in the area -really impressed and appreciative of this site. Thank you all!
Yo moved to Spokane four months ago and stoked to get to know the area. Been to Spo, Training Hill, 49. Any other cool spots I should be sure to tour this season?
Been in the area a long time but new to backcountry. Got most of the gear last year but have waiting to go through the level 1 class before I jump in both feet. Looking forward to the class at Schweitzer this weekend so I have a foundation of knowledge to start exploring safely!
Thinking about visiting Sandpoint sometime soon and super pumped I stumbled upon this forum. Thank you!
Hey all! Thanks for creating a local site with great info. I am looking forward to exploring more of the backcountry outside of the Washington western mountain range. Any tips of trips of places to go in northern Idaho end of February or early March is appreciated!
What's up! Looking to explore some of North Idaho's finest backcountry and saw some great trip reports posted here!
