Default Waxing Problem

Hej,
Any recommendations on how best to deal with this situation. You start
off on icy conditions so you put on Klister. How do you adapt when you
move on to softer snow without cleaning everything off. When touring you
can mix all sorts of waxes and function but what can you put on top of
Klister.


As you said in the subject: This is a waxing problem (it is also a
wexing problems...)! :-)

In reality, if you are backcountry touring and breaking trail, starting
out at lower altitude with wet snow (red klister) and then you get fresh
dry powder snow at higher altitude, you pretty much have to scrape off
as much klister as possible, then cover the remains with blue extra or
some other regular wax.

BT,DT. Many, many times.

Particularly "fun" back in the wooden ski days.
