The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

My family is in the Sylva area and I've driven the park way there and with snow the closed road could be fun but as you say the trees are really thick-- I'll be there T-giving hope I can investigate.





----oh yeah, I like the short skins, what are they, how do they do?



Black Diamond Kicker skins. They do really well. Meant for short side country type tours. Very little slippage and they glide pretty good.



Yeah, it was more of a "I just want to get out in the snow on skis" type of thing. The AT with a lot of snow would be tons of fun downhill for a x-country or tele skier.
