For the beginners, ski mountaineering, mountain skiing or ski touring is a ski practice on snow-covered grounds, very close to nature, without using specific facilities on the ski areas (no lifts and no groomed fall-line skiing), for leisure or competitive purposes.
The ski mountaineering is practiced on very steep slopes, mostly with alpine skis ; cross-country skiing can be practiced with skis.
This sport is practiced with seal skins under the skis to prevent slipping backward, now synthetic device provided with short hair. When the snow and terrain conditions warrant, hikers use knives.
