Don't Worry, You're in Good Hands

At Mountain Creek we pride ourselves on the reputation of our terrain parks. We've been applauded for our terrain park features and designs; and now, we can add park safety to our growing list of badges with the National Ski Areas Association's (NSAA) award for "Best Terrain Park Safety Program."

The NSAA Safety Awards are given out annually to those resorts that have done an outstanding job of educating employees and guests about skiing and snowboarding responsibly. Our terrain park safety initiatives include: the requirement of all park visitors to complete a Park Pass safety program and quiz, dedicated learn-to freestyle terrain and instruction, constant terrain and feature monitoring and a strict helmet policy for all employees and guests taking freestyle lessons.
