Shanty Creek - Snowboarding and Terrain Parks

With six terrain parks, Shanty Creek leads the way for freeriders and twin-tip skiing alike. Boasting a variety of ever-changing rails, boxes and tabletops, our parks are groomed daily and maintained by our knowledgeable staff. Our park design staff attend Cutter's Camp, where the industry's leaders share best practices to improve the terrain park experience.
