The alpine-touring ski binding of the present invention utilizes a boot plate on which the ski boot is releasably mounted with the boot plate being pivotally connected to a toe piece for selective pivotal movement about a transverse axis passing through the toe piece and includes a heel piece for releasably securing the heel end of the boot plate to the ski. A unique system is employed on the boot plate so that when the heel piece is inoperative and allows the trailing end of the boot piece to be elevated as during cross-country skiing, an elevator plate on the boot plate can be deployed to selectively determine the limits of movement of the boot plate by preventing the boot plate from returning completely to a parallel relationship with the ski. An elevator plate is also provided on the heel piece for the same purpose.
