Hi there
Well here in Scotland we don't have many resorts, and the ones we have are either crap because they don't have enough snow or are totally overcrowded... So I was looking into doing some backcountry.
Seeing as we don't usually get more than 1 foot of snow (where I live at least) I thought It might be cheaper purchasing a regular set of crampons (sorry I'm on a rather limited budget at the moment).
So the question is, will they work ok with my lightness (100lbs), or will I just sink in. Will I be a lot faster with snowshoes (thanks for giving me the link of the retailer jack), or will it be about the same. So many questions...
Been very cold tonight, about -4 just now at 23:00, and the forecast says there should be tons of snow by the end of the week... I am buzzing with excitement right now.
Thanks for being such a friendly, welcoming and supportive community!!!
