Here's one from this past weekend at the end of Cement Creek in Silverton. They closed the lift at 2:00 and so we hit the skin trail. Coming back down the road at dusk Matt had to walk beside the car to feel for the road it was hammering so hard. True zero visability in the wind. Tough trail breaking, big face shots on the way down.

the skin track itself is just to the left, but the pic with the actual track in it is out of focus
(thanks for the IT help, pope!)
This is fun, I will contribute

Gorgeous thread.
Here's a little Eastern Nevada for you, from the Ruby Mountains near Lamoille and the Schell Range outside of Ely. I'm the chick on the left in the 3-shot.
KKM- is there a skintrack in here I can't see?Quote:

I suppose this is considered cheating, in that my favorite skin tracks photos are ones taken while snowcat skiing. But I'm going to put them up anyway. Hopefully we'll get some true backcountry photos worth sharing soon.
This first one is while we were snowcat skiing at Snowwater Heli- & Snowcat Skiing, near Nelson, BC. We had a 15-minute skin up from where the cat dropped us off. I'm in the lead.

The second one is while we were at Chatter Creek Lodge, BC (near Golden). I'm last in line (or perhaps I should say my husband was last, since he took the photo, but that's OK, we both still got freshies).

This is what I love about skiing...just being in the mountains. It doesn't matter if you are skinning up or skiing down, just being out there is great.
If bootpacking counts, here is one from France.
