RIDGE
Alpine Barrier Salve
$32 CAD2 in tin · 60 ml
Above treeline the air takes more than it gives. RIDGE was poured for the days the wind never lets up — a heavy beeswax and poplar-bud barrier that seals the cheekbones, knuckles and nose line at first light and is still there when you drop back into the timber. It goes on firm from the two-inch tin, warms under the thumb, and finishes matte rather than greasy, so it never wicks grit onto your face on a dusty descent.
- Holds a wind and cold barrier for a full day of exposure
- Matte, non-greasy finish that won't collect trail dust
- Rebuilds the lipid layer overnight instead of sealing it shut
- Two-inch pack-lid tin, full ingredient deck on the back label
