Ski Extrem Guide

<p>Swinging down steep mountain flanks in powder snow, down narrow couloirs and finding your way down between rocks. These dreams made from numerous ski films are presented as a compact guide with detailed route descriptions.</p><p>Very steep slopes require precise tour information as well as optimal conditions, but as these are not available on every tour day, the authors have also described an easier ski tour to the same summit in addition to the extreme route. These easy ascents are usually also beginner-friendly and allow less experienced ski tourers to reach the highest point.</p><p>This book provides experienced ski tourers with a nice overview of the steeper downhill options. To make the selection more excellent, the rating system has been expanded. In addition to the technical skiing difficulty, the necessary alpine skills and the risk associated with each steep face are also indicated.</p><p>Detailed route descriptions, overview images of the steep slopes and gullies to be skied, maps with marked lines for the ascent or descent in excellent quality. There is also the option of downloading the tracks of the respective routes from the publisher's website via the Internet.</p><p>The Ski Extreme Guide is therefore a book in which you will primarily find tour information that is almost completely excluded from normal ski touring guides - the tour planning tool par excellence for experienced ski tourers and ambitious freeriders.</p><p>The routes also have short descriptions in English.</p
