Filmmaker Brian Hodge camped out and captured the 154 hours of preparation across the resort, from the first snow gun to the first chair.

This past weekend we celebrated our earliest opening day in 30 years on November 30th!

Introducing High Cascade Snowboard Camp at Mountain Creek!

High Cascade Snowboard Camp and Mountain Creek have partnered to announce High Cascade at Mountain Creek camp programs.   High Cascade Snowboard Camp (HCSC) is bringing all of the coaching, activities, and fun of a summer at Mt. Hood to Vernon, New Jersey for the entire 2013/14 season.  High Cascade’s premiere coaches will guide riders through a specific progression to make them the best rider they can be, while HCSC counselors fill in the gaps with epic off-snow activities.  Programs include single day, season long, weekend and holiday camp offerings.

2013 Best Edit Contest Results

There’s no doubt Creek has some killer talent, both on the snow and behind the lens, which makes selecting the season’s best edit a difficult task. Skilled riders and skiers, editing that rivals the best in the industry and pure passion for the sport that reminds us why we do what we do…you kids continue to make us proud! After an intense and wildly entertaining deliberation fueled by plenty of Red Bull, the critics have spoken. Here's how it all played out...

The Not-So-Legendary Banked Slalom

This past weekend we took a trip back in time to 1987 in celebration of 25 Years of Snowboarding (1987-2013) at the resort. It was a weekend filled with mullets, mustaches, methods and plenty of vintage style. The high point of the weekend was the first annual Not-So-Legendary Banked Slalom event. Under sunny skies and classic spring riding conditions over 100 RADically dressed competitors took to the course of banks, berms, rollers and booters. Racers were judged not only on their time but also their overall style, and the tight and technical course quickly separated the pretenders from the contenders. It was an awesome display of carnage and style as the riders put it all on the line for glory. While the poachers trained up for some epic snake runs through the course. When it was over here’s how the winners stacked up:

1st Place - Sean Black

2nd Place - Sean Dolan

3rd Place - Kevin Whitehead

K2 Pretty in Pink Recap

We had a great turnout for K2's 7th Annual Pretty in Pink at Mountain Creek. Lots of ladies showed up and represented hard, throwing down on rails while raising awareness for breast cancer and just having fun. Everyone involved in the event - riders, instructors, judges, coordinators, even marketing staff - was all female.

The day started off with a free learn-to-freestyle session and tips on how to hit features, while K2 lent out hard goods to demo. Then the girls hiked the Arena to practice on the 5-jib set-up. Finally, the rail jam took place with rounds for ages 17+ and 17 and under. All the participants killed it! Awards were given out, followed by food and drink specials at Kink.

Check out this official video for all the event highlights:
