Systems and methods for attaching with a ski to provide improved traction while climbing snowy grades. Exemplary climbing track assemblies can include an attachment to the bottom of a ski that improves traction for hiking or climbing uphill. Assemblies can also include an under-binding bracket, which is mounted under the toe-piece binding of the ski which allows the device to be securely fastened. Assemblies may further include a shim, provided as a small plate mounted under the heel-piece binding, which operates to keep the binding level.

A nose clip and a tail clip for a splitboard ski assembly may each comprise at least three hooks. The nose clip and the tail clip may be adaptable to various splitboard ski designs. A stretcher for a skin assembly may be configured to interface with the tail clip. The tail clip may comprise at least two elongated apertures defining a rail. The stretcher may be configured to interface with the rail via friction and/or secure a skin assembly to a splitboard ski assembly.

One aspect of this disclosure is a climbing skin attachment apparatus. The apparatus may comprise a climbing skin attachment portion and a snow device connection portion, a channel extending at least partially through the climbing skin attachment portion along a channel axis to receive an anchor portion of a climbing skin, and a passage extending through the climbing skin attachment portion and into the channel along the channel axis to receive a lead portion of the climbing skin. Related apparatus, methods, and systems also are described.
