Backcountry  |  The Backyard Issue | Issue #144
You don’t have to travel the world to find good skiing, so our Backyard Issue highlights some of the best close-to-home locales. After evacuating her home during a series of California megafires, Tahoe resident Megan Michelson explores the impact wildfires have on skiing, now and in the future. Andrew Findlay takes advantage of travel restrictions to ski Vancouver Island’s Comox Range, and Tom Hallberg delves into the history of huts in the United States, including a movement to make sure all Americans can access overnight adventures. Plus, we review backpacks and GPS watches, and we check in with Christina Lustenberger, who notched five first descents last season within a few hours of her home in Canada.
