like X-C skiing trails type of terrain? I want to have something that I could do something like a snowshoe/X-C hike but have the option to ski as well if the opertunity presents itself. I'm going to use the lightest skinny ski I can find that can still go downhill well because its still about the downhill with me.
I'm stuck with alpine boots and am debating whether to go with trekkers or a touring binder. I've done some touring on trekkers and I realize how bad it can be going up and down with fat skis and skins but I've managed to deal with it. Is a dedicated A/T binding going to make that much of a difference with alpine boots or do you really have to get A/T boots to get the full effect?
