Respect your limits! 5 rules for responsible ski touring:

Where available, stay on marked trails; be sure to observe signs as well as protected and restricted areas.
Be considerate of wild animals: avoid feeding areas and retreat immediately and calmly if you see a wild animal.
Avoid young tree crops (under three meters), the ski edges can cause major damage to the trees.
