As a snowboarder, and even more so when out splitboarding, bootpacking is a key part of accessing your line, and although it may seem basic - one foot in front of the other right?! There are a few things that can help you to be more efficient in your ascent.
In this episode of How To Xv I go through the basics, starting on your mellow climb, through to using your snowboard to be more efficient and save energy, as well as where and when to switch in into bootpack mode.
For more detailed explanations of how to use crampons and ice axes - which I mention in the episode, check out HOW TO USE CRAMPONS and HOW TO RIDE WITH ICE AXES.
