We haven't been posting much lately, and we want the let you know why.Our founder @mbjorn95 is going through a major knee injury and is therefore not able to be out in the mountains himself. “I have been struggling with staying motivated to post content as I haven't been able to create my own content and it is tough to find good content every day from other people in the mountains. I have been focusing on my rehab and started studying to use the downtime while I’m injured in the best way possible. At the moment I’m around 4 months out of surgery and I'm still about 8-12 months away from being back on snow and able to explore the mountains😕 I can not wait to be back out there, and I will come back stronger, better and more motivated than ever⛷”.This means that we won't be posting as much as we have done earlier, but we will try to share all the content we get tagged in with you on our stories or feed, and if there is someone out there who is keen to help us create some content then we would very much appreciate it! Feel free to get in contact with us🙌😃⛷🏂🏔.#48freeriders #backcountryskiing #backcountry #skiing #bigmountain #bigmountainskiing #offpisteskiing #offpiste #mountians #explorethemountains #skiinstructor #skiinstructorlife #freerideski #freeriding by @48freeriders

Following the spine can be a really good route choice. This way you can minimize the risk to get caught in an avalanche, but you gotta watch out for cornice, and of course, falling of the spine could be dangerous when walking on a spine as @mitja_rozman does in this picture ❄️🏔.#48freeriders #backcountryskiing #backcountrysnowboarding #backcountry #spine #earnyourturns #freeriding #skiing #snow #snowboarding #skimountaineering #snowboardmountaineering #mountain #mountains #mountainguides #mountainguidelife #explorethemountains by @48freeriders

Navigating in the mountains is not always easy, but learning how to use GPS technology as well as old school map and compass to navigate can be the difference between life and death in tricky situations🏔❄️.Whiteouts are temporary, knowledge is forever⛷🏂.📸 @foilingschool @charly_sail @sbutterfly .#48freeriders #backcountryskiing #skitouring #skitour #skitouren #backcountry #backcountrynavigation #splitboarding #splitboard #splitboardingistheanswer #backcountrysnowboarding #swissalps #skithealps #skimo #skimountaineering #wintermountaineering #winterwonderland #winter #mountains #navigation #knowlegde #explorethemountains #mountainguides #mountainguidelife #powdersnow #powderskiing by @48freeriders

Backcountry skiing and snowboarding is not only about skiing the deepest powder on the gnarliest line, but about the full adventure of the tour🏂⛷.Everything from preparation to the well deserved après beer at the end of the day is what makes touring so amazing❄️🏔.#48freeriders #backcountryskiing #backcountrysnowboarding #backcountry #skitouring #splitboarding #skitour #splitboard #skitouren #splitboardingistheanswer #earnyourturns #winter #winterwonderland #wintermountain #wintermountaineering #skimountaineering #skimo #mountains #mountainguides #mountainguidelife by @48freeriders

Splitboarding on a glacier can be an amazing experience with stunning views and incredible snow on a massive amount of ice that have been there for 1000’s of year's, preserving the history within the ice🏂❄️.This unique landscape can also be very dangerous, with crevasses, deep cracks in the ice that during the winter can be covered in snow. We recommend that you always bring your glacier kit with you when touring in a glacier and book a guide if you don't have the knowledge and experience to your on a glacier🏔📸 @d0m1t .#48freeriders #splitboarding #glacier #glaciersnowboarding #glaciertour #backcountryskiing #backcountry #backcountrysnowboarding #splitboard #splitboardingistheanswer #splitboardtour #freeriding #powdersnow #powdersnowboarding #winter #winterwonderland #skitouring #mountains #mountainguide #mountainguidelife #explorethemountains #earnyourturns #icecave #skimo #skimountaineering #wintermountaineering by @48freeriders
