Advanced Backcountry Exploration and Ski Touring Tech
Ski touring in Val d'Isère and Tignes opens up access to pristine backcountry routes away from the tracked-out boundary lines. My specialized instruction focuses on teaching efficient skinning mechanics, pacing, quick kick-turns on steep slopes, and reliable route management. We explore classic local tracking options like touring through the Col de Fresse, scaling routes toward the Pointe de Sana, or exploring day loops near the edges of the Vanoise National Park.
If your technical goals include moving comfortably away from mechanical lift systems, this tailored instruction is built for you. Many clients search specifically for Terry Walker ski instructor or an independent Terry ski instructor framework to ensure they get high-level analysis from a professional BASI Assessor.
