Talk to ski patrol. Ideally going with someone that can show you is the best way to safely find powder stashes on the ridge. Avalanche safety and awareness of avalanche terrain is the biggest thing.

I think it is important you know how to use your gear before you go out in the backcountry. Bring your splitboard and see how it rides off the lift as well as practice converting from skin mode to ride mode and back. You don’t want to be that person there at the trailhead with your friends and your stuff doesn’t work.
