A great ski video of my favorite type of skiing! Skiing in the woods! These skiers are great and the ski video footage is amazing as they ski through the area I fell in love with skiing, Vermont USA.

As a note from the uploader, there is a small part of the skiing video that is filmed outside Vermont in New Hampshire on Mount Washington, a well known extreme skiing location in Eastern USA.

Skiing Tuckerman Ravine, a steep skiing area on Mt Washington, New Hampshire, the highest mountain peak in Eastern North America, is a popular backcountry skiers location. There is a pretty long hike up, about 2km in the spring when the road opens and over 5km before. It is very popular in the Spring time, sometimes open till June, as it is less likely for avalanches to occur then and the weather is warmer. At the peak of the season, there can be 1000 backcountry skiers in skiing Tuckerman’s Ravine and jumping off the many cliffs. There is now also a t-bar which can take you about half way up. The area is also patrolled by a volunteer ski patrol during peak times.

In this backcountry skiing video, you follow a group of skiers and snowboarders as they hike up to Tuckerman Ravine. They then film some skiers going down, one of them doing a small cliff jump. They then film their decent as they ski down Tuckerman Ravine and had into the wooded area. I never knew there ware glades in that area.

This ski video provides a great overview of the skiing at Mt Washington for anyone interested in backountry skiing areas.
