LEXICON: Boundary Marker

Boundary Marker - / ˈbaʊndri ˈmɑːkə / - Noun
Signs or poles marking the edge of a piste or to indicate the boundary between maintained ski areas and off-piste and/or out of bounds areas Piste Markers: Piste markers are physical signs or poles placed along ski runs (pistes) to guide skiers. These markers indicate the level of difficulty (green, blue, red, black), trail direction, or specific areas of the ski resort. In off-piste skiing, trail markers may be less frequent or absent entirely, making navigation more challenging and requiring skiers to rely on their knowledge, maps, or GPS devices.

Boundary Markers: These are markers placed by ski resorts to indicate the boundary between maintained ski areas (pistes) and off-piste or out-of-bounds areas. Crossing these boundaries typically leads to unpatrolled and potentially dangerous terrain, so skiers should be aware of these markers when venturing off-piste.

Marker: Marker is also a well-known brand that manufactures ski bindings for off-piste and freeride skiing.

\\ Dude, that sick line is just beyond the boundary markers. Are you up for it?
