The harsh siberian weather with continuous snowfalls starting from October is normal for inhabitants. The wilderness and easy of access mountains, fresh powder and skiers free zone creates a unique place for freeride and ski-touring. The absence of tourists and any ski-infrastructure is not a trouble, but is a goldmine for all off-piste fans. Two ratracs with comfort cabins serve as a lift to the summit and back and gather a group after off-piste runs. The groups are compact 10-12 people, provide a safety skiing with guide. The ski region is rather vast, more than 7 summits where you can easily spend a whole day freeride skiing various lines without any traces. A nice snack in the midday and than ski again until the sunset. The day consists of 8-12 runs, depending the ski region. The vertically drop on the average varies between 300-400 m. The ski area is usual in an open forest zone, but also the are steep couloirs, large snow eaves, rocks and drops. But the main gem is the fresh snow.
