Hey Krummholz- Nightshift Hangover, Motorcycle Season Ending Withdrawal Syndrome, not enough snow to ski on yet. I’ll be okay.

REI has knocked some more off the Alfa boots. Now 60% off.

Anyone know if REI ships to Canada- or at least allows for a Canadian member with a US address?
Cross-country AND down-hill skiing in the backcountry.
Unashamed to be a "cross-country type" and love skiing down-hill.

I wonder what the story is behind this? Seems unusual…

From what this says, it looks like you can order to Canada (even without being a member), with free shipping for orders over $150.
(No Member Benefits on sale items.)

Nice looking TX Pros 27.0

Weird liners but the soles and bellows look good. Older ones with heel inserts.

Is anyone planning on going to the “Phil & Mary Dunham Ski, Skate, Snowboard & Hockey Equipment Sale” at the Gibson-Aiken Center in Brattleboro Vermont?

It is this Saturday November 4, 2023 @ 0800

207 Main St, Brattleboro, VT 05301



Might be a good place to score some used gear at a good price…

Sliding snowshoes.

LLBean in Concord, NH has a sliding snowshoe thing for sale right now.

Looked about 4'. Has inset scales on the base, and Whitewoods brand universal bindings.

I think they are $175.

Lots of Alaska XPs on ebay for around $200.

I just bought these, can anyone tell me if they are US or UK 10? Im a 43 and don't have narrow feet. There may be some t3s in the turnaround next week!
