Terrain Park

Copper Summit has two terrain parks, one with smaller features on the beginner hill and a larger park in the Bone Yard. Numerous features are spread throughout the runs and are professionally groomed daily to provide every rider the best the Midwest has to offer in park progression. The diversity of Copper Summit's terrain supports the progression of your riding. Some terrain park features include a double C-box, 10' flat 20' down t-style rail and a beginner rainbow. It's open to snowboarders and skiers. There's always room to explore and there's always something going on! Smart Style Make a plan. Always make a plan of the direction and path you intend to ride. Making a plan before executing takes one more strain off your mind to free it up for concetration on the trick you plan on executing. Your path should be clear of other riders' lines and riders who are chillin' waiting for their turn. Look before you leap. Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area. Easy style it. Start small and work your way up - throughout the day and the season. Respect gets respect. From the lift line through the park, respect everyone on the mountain.

Ski Patrol

Since its formation in 1938, the National Ski Patrol (NSP) has evolved into one of the largest outdoor-winter rescue organizations in the world. It is composed of more than 28,500 members serving over 600 ski patrols including volunteer, paid, alpine, snowboard and nordic patrollers throughout the United States and certain military areas in Europe. The NSP membership provides countless years of service and devotion to the skiing community by providing safety education, emergency care, and rescue services. In 1980, the National Ski Patrol was recognized as a Federal Charter by the United States Congress. This is a coveted endorsement that only a few other American institutions, such as the Red Cross, the YMCA, and the Boy Scouts, have earned. The Charter stipulates the promotion of safety and health in skiing and other outdoor winter recreational activities. The NSP reports directly to Congress. The Copper Summit Ski Patrol consists of dedicated volunteers providing ski/boarding safety. The responsibilities include hill safety, skier/rider safety education, emergency care and rescue. Their mission is to serve the skiing public without charge in the rescue and first aid treatment of injured skiers, offering this service in a courteous manner, affording the best public relations possible for the Copper Summit and our organization.
