Here is a recent conversation that started asking how the Hagan Off Limits compares to the Altai Hok (no comparison). In the last paragraph there is a question about sand skiing with the Hagan X-Trace Pivot binding.

Ski Area Ski Touring in Colorado? What ski resorts allow it?
Most Colorado ski mountains allow it, with resort managers writing rules to regulate it. Some charge a modest fee, some don’t. Some allow it only before and after lift operating hours. Almost always, uphilling is restricted to designated routes. See the rules at each of the Colorado Ski Areas here.
Hagan Ski Mountaineering has the most extensive and comprehensive line of gear focused entirely on backcountry ski touring. That wide selection can make it hard to decide on the skis and bindings appropriate for you - for your experience, ability, fitness and pursuits.
