Here’s the Session 4 Recap™! This recap is ‘da bomb. But we are sure you already knew that. Check it!

HEED THY WARNING YOUNG SQUASHBUCKLERS!!!

Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

For the majestic fleet of Gnu Girls Pirates hath sailed into thy harbor of our noble port of High Cascade Snowboard Camp!

With them, they brought great bounty, as well as great danger!

For the 4th time this summer, the Gnu Girls hath despoiled our noble village!

This time, the fierce competition took place on the great table tennis field. Tis a field where humans test their utmost strength and internal fortitude. The challenge was extremely tough. The Gnu Pirate Girls had to play ping-pong with one eye covered, just like ole’ black beard would play. It takes a true Pirate to become an expert sword handler!

It was not an easy task, playing in a 2-dimensional world.

The reward however, now that is a different story. The reward was extremely plentiful.

The winner of the one eyed ping pong received a brand new Gnu Park Pickle, while 2nd, and 3ed place took home awesome Gnu T-shirts! These Gnu Pirate Girls are expert sword handlers! Beware if thy cross paths with these dangerous and treacherous Pirates!! God Speed and good luck to all of thee!!!!

ANTPM!!!

Thursday, July 21st, 2011

SNOWBOARDER magazine’s America’s Next Top Pro Model wrapped up yesterday, July 20th.

Things really heated up in High Cascade’s private snowboard park! The day started off with the pros trying to battle it out on the LONGEST RAIL EVER!!!!! Ok, ok, it wasn’t really the longest rail, but it was pretty dang long!

While some riders, such as Aaron Bittner, and Sage Kostenberg, were able to make it to the end…


Other riders, like the legendary Kevin Jones, didn’t make it away so lucky!

All in all though, the mega long rail was a good time for everyone. Especially Smoken’ Snowboards rider Max Weinberger.

After the rail section of the contest, it was time for the highest air in the mini-pipe. Riders such as Lane Knack, Forest Bailey, and Bode Merril were soaring above the mini-pipe!


While ANTPM was quite eventful on hill, it wasn’t all of the action that was happening up there. No, no, there was much much more. Lib-Tech’s Boxes For Days also took place up on hill yesterday. The contest took place on the same crazy long rail that the pros were riding just minutes before. Think Thank mastermind, and Session 1 Signature Sessioner™, Jesse Burtner was announcing all over the action over the microphone. The campers were so pumped to ride an extremely unique feature, and win tons of awesome gear from Lib-Tech!

If being in a contest wasn’t your thing, well there was also plenty of other riding happening all day. Check out this photo of Coach Seth Hill, boosting over our hip!

Just look at camp Filmer Matt Roberge’s face. This air was pretty unbelievable!!!

Off the hill, the ANTPM action started back up again, this time with the Charity Auction! All of the pros from the contest brought their gear down to Boardwalk and auctioned off all of their gear that they had been using throughout the entire contest.




After all of the bidding took place during the silent auction of the event, it then became a one on one bid off. People were able to walk away with some of their favorite pro’s gear for a super good price!






In the end, it was Bode Merril, and HCSC facilities manager, Brock Odolovich, who came out with the most amount raised for charity. While Brock might have paid the most, he also received the most gear. Bode’s package included 3 boards, a set of bindings, a pair of boots, 3 pairs of goggles, a set of outerwear, 2 sets of sunglasses, and some brand new base layer. It was a steal for Brock!

SNOWBOARDER magazine’s ANTPM is a great contest, that brings out pros from every generation and allows them to compete in a fun, carefree environment. We, at High Cascade Snowboard Camp, think it’s a great opportunity to have our campers meet, and interact with their favorite pros! It was a great event, and we can’t wait for it to happen again, next summer!!

DOUBLE RAINBOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

WE HAD A DOUBLE RAINBOW TODAY!!!!!!!!

We will say it again, a double rainbow!!!!!!

It was purely amazing! But what does it mean? Does it mean that we landed on the moon? Because by the looks of things, it looks like we here at High Cascade have now officially, landed on the moon!

Just kidding, it’s Mt.Hood, and right now it’s the home of SNOWBOARDER magazine’s America’s Next Top Pro Model contest!

Today was the Spin to Win part of the contest, and it was going off!

Also going off today was the big ole’ down tube. Things were getting a little crazy.

So much action happened on the hill that it light up the sky!


Hopefully the pink sky heats up tomorrow and we have a totally scorching day on hill!

Boxes for Days!!

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011

Session 4 is going to have “Boxes for Days”. Not only is Session 4 the Signature Session™ for Eero Ettala, Heikki Sorsa, Iikka Backstrom, Lauri Heiskari, Eero Niemela, and Erin Comstock, but it’s also home to the “Boxes for Days” contest at Mt. Hood. That’s right the “ridiculously fun event involving a lot of boxes” is coming to High Cascades’ private park during Session 4.

This contest is awesome. Just imagine every type of box you could ever think of, all put together into one long box. “Boxes for Days” is sponsored by Mervin MFG ( Lib-Tech and GNU), Coal, and Think Thank, and Lib-Techs’ own Jesse Burtner will be on hand announcing all the action that’s guaranteed to go down. Watch this video of the “Boxes for Days” from Summit at Snoqualmie to see exactly what we are talking about.
