The Voile system is pretty solid and works well. I used it for about 18 years until recently switching it up to tech toes and fancier plate bindings with Atomic Backlands with Phantom levers, blah, blah, blah. One thing to consider is that the splitboard will not be as efficient as the rest of you on the uptrack or rolling terrain. So you might want to plan tours with the splitboard in mind. I think that once spilt, things are pretty similar to your AT gear. Just think worse on traverses and a wider track (he'll have to break trail a bit more, even in the rear). Things work better on the up with splitboards if you use AT boots (and voile mtn plates) instead of regular snowboard boots and bindings, but it suffers on the down without significant boot mods. I guess I am not aware of much in the way of splitboard resources other than this forum: http://splitboard.com/talk/

He'll grow up quick. I would get a 154 Voile Spartan. Nothing fancy, but it will work for years and is the best deal out there for a new splitboard with all the bits. You'll need to budget for poles, beacon, pack, etc. And I would recommend AIRE Avy 1 for the entire family, esp. if adults that will be taking him out haven't had it. As you probably know, you can get into a lot of trouble in the backcountry. https://www.voile.com/voile-spartan-splitboard.html Good luck!

But where is the adventure in that?

It is more like you need to spend an impressive amount of money to get a modern full frame sensor! Shooting RAW with these modern sensors allows you to bring out a lot of detail in the highlights and shadows at the same time. So, while, it isn't an editing "trick" I certainly did edit the image to be more what our eyes saw in the moment. Sensors still aren't as good as we we have to see the world with (at least during daylight hours)!

Damn. That first photo! -
I may not have a plane, but I can still copy Austin Post by climbing to the top of Primus and taking a picture of Eldorado:

When you wake up on the Inspiration glacier and there is a high deck of smoke that is about to ruin your day. But at least you had a good sunrise:

Good question @Otto! I didn't mean to hog the fun. EVERYONE SHOULD POST A PHOTO OF THE DAY! Take that Instagram!

Thanks for the validation @psathyrella. Just for that, you get another today! Jailhouse Rock in Capitol Reef NP (discerning viewers may notice that I am not afraid of posting exact locations on cc.com):
