MTNApproach Ambassador at Williams Peak Yurt | May 2013

MTNApproach ambassador Sam Elmes recently took a mountaineering class through Sawtooth Mountain Guides up at the William’s Peak Yurt in the Sawtooth Mountains.

The snow looked a little more crusty than this time last year, but we love that place regardless.

MTNApproach | Blister Gear Review by Jed Doane

Jed Doane spent the winter snowboarding and testing MTNApproach in the mountains of Southern Colorado.  Here is an excerpt from his review on Blister Gear Reviews:

“The MTN Approach System solves a few fundamental issues with backcountry riding: first, it allows for the rider to ride a fully intact snowboard, without the downhill performance issues that may bother some riders with a splitboard. Second, it allows for the rider to switch boards day to day depending on preference and conditions.

In addition to these core advantages, the maneuverability, low per-step weight, and skinning performance of the skis make for a pretty enjoyable uphill experience in most conditions.”

JP Solberg and Mads Jonsson use MTNApproach for Norwegian Backcountry

JP Solberg and Mads Jonsson wanted to show us the amazing terrain Norway has to offer backcountry snowboarders.  These photos are a glimpse into their everyday view.

Due to the motorized restrictions in the backcountry by the government, JP and crew are using the MTNApproach System to access the terrain without having to cut their snowboards in half.  We can’t wait to see where their travels take them next.
