    Gear AT setup for East Coast

    Hi everyone, First post but a long time lurker. I'm looking to get an AT setup but am a little lost on Ski/Binding selection. I already got some well fitting Boots (Scarpa Maestrale RS for a steal from Backcountry.com) so that's a start. These skis will be used primarily in the Northeast...
