Backcountry | 134 | The 2021 Gear Guide
This is the year to go remote, and our 2021 Gear Guide has all the splitboards, skis, boots and bindings to get you there. Last March our team of 43 testers—hailing from Vermont to California and everywhere in between—tried the best skis, boards, boots, bindings and apparel that we could get our hands on at our 13th annual Gear Test Week at Powder Mountain, Utah. After months of working remotely from our basements, guest bedrooms and kitchen counters, our editors have compiled the top picks to help you get remote on the skintrack. Inside the issue you'll find tester feedback and unbiased, in-depth reviews on 34 Editors’ Choice picks and the 51 skis and 29 splitboards that will take you where you want to go, wherever that may be. Plus, 21 boots, 12 bindings and 28 pieces of apparel. Whether you’re looking for your first backcountry setup or just updating those well-loved planks, our 2021 Gear Guide has you covered.
