00:04There are times while a patrol is on tour that it becomes necessary for the men to remove
00:09their skis and proceed on foot.
00:11There are several methods for carrying skis depending upon the conditions of the terrain
00:16or natural surroundings.
00:18One method is used when the patrol enters a heavily wooded area and the men are hindered
00:23because of the lack of skiing space.
00:39The troopers must now place the running surface of their skis together and fasten them with
00:43toe straps.
01:01The skis are carried over their shoulders with the tips either forward or back.
01:06Traveling through timber, the trooper keeps his skis over his shoulders at a high angle
01:10to clear the trooper who follows him.
01:19The ski poles are made into a walking stick by slipping the basket of one over the handle
01:24of the other.
01:35Having come through the forest, the men proceed to ski until they reach a stretch of bare ground
01:41and it is here they must employ another method, the hand grip method of carrying their skis.
01:47This is accomplished by placing the ski pole handle through the toe strap of the ski binding
01:52and sliding the pole backward until the tip of the ski enters the basket of the pole.
02:16The toe strap and pole shaft are grasped together to prevent the ski from escaping or the pole
02:22from slipping out of position.
02:24The skis are now carried with the tips forward so that the points of the pole can be kept
02:29clear of and not injure the man ahead.
02:32The hand gripped ski carry is suitable for short distances only.
