- After visiting Crested Butte, Colorado (yes, I know about the boycott)
- since lift tickets were free!!!!!! I noticed tons and tons of people on
- telemark skies. Being a skier for 18 years and a snowboarder for the
- last ten, I would like to telemark. To try and avoid rip off lift
- tickets year round and hit the back-country. Can anyone give me some
- input about telemarking? I am curious about some experiences you might
- of had and some technical info.(ie.- what is needed and what are some
- equipment prices.) Thanks and PLEASE stop the snowboard bashing. It's
- not the snowboarder or skiiers fault- just a couple of jerks who might
- have given a bad influence about their sport. Just like some skiiers I
- know. Keep the peace- it's everyones slope.
