Description

Welcome to Buffalo Pass. Nestled in the Park Range near Steamboat Springs, this is the mecca for snowmobile-access backcountry skiing in the Rockies. Boasting some of the best tree skiing around and world-class powder, this area offers mellow terrain to tight and technical lines. From Dry Lake to Buffalo Mountain, mellow glades to technical sled-to-ski lines, this bundle puts the entire zone in your hands.

Together, the premier ski atlas and the waterproof, foldable topo map lay out 80+ routes, plus their approaches and exits, that make the terrain (and snow!) on Buffalo Pass famous.

In the atlas, the author, ski guide and snow geek Stephen Bass has delivered a high-quality guidebook that is accessible to every type of skier. This book will help increase your understanding of the terrain so that you can plan a successful and smart tour. You’ll find high-quality aerial photos and detailed descriptions to support real decision-making. Both the atlas and the map are lightweight and packable and include ascent and descent lines, trailheads and parking info, Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) ratings, aspect, a run list, slope angles, descent lengths, and more.

"This is the kind of publication that helps you arrive cold as an out-of-towner, find the “skinners” and have at it while pounding fluffy Colorado pow and laughing at the over-priced ski lifts."

"It neatly lays out the elevations, descent lengths, aspects, trailhead directions, winter maintenance and parking info, snowmobile access, skin tracks, and exit info. That combined with helpful photos, give backcountry travelers a very good idea of what is going on."

"Sovick’s book contains established skin tracks, preferred routes, etiquette, and notes on terrain traps, gullies and avalanche paths. It also assumes all users are trained in avalanche avoidance and rescue, and includes AIARE’s “Communication Checklist,” which includes tips for facilitating teamwork and good decision-making."
