Denali Ski Setup
Posted: Tue Mar 26, 2013 8:37 am
Can someone walk me through the ski setup? I have La Sportiva Spantiks. Should i just bring a pair of old beater alpine skis with normal alpine bindings (assuming they work with the spantiks)? I could also bring my cross country skis and boots or telemarking gear instead? They are lighter and probably more comfortable than going uphill in my spantiks and regular alpine skis. Might make a nice boot for lower part of the mountain as well?
I've read about silveretta bindings as well as an option. Are they really necessary? I'm assuming the heal lifts which I can imagine is big a bonus.
I did alpine racing my entire life, so I'm a capable skier. I noticed all the guiding companies seem to insist on snow shoes. Is that because they don't trust people on skis?
