Crystal Mountain, Washington

Watch here as the lines are blurred between the yesterday and today…because Crystal Mountain’s terrain truly hasn’t changed that much over the years. Intense storms followed by clear blue skies – and major cliff jumps followed by perfect turns – have fit into this mountain’s narrative throughout time. Join Washington athletes Bryce Phillips, Ingrid Backstrom, Arne Backstrom and Tyler Ceccanti as they explain to this generation what it means to be a true Crystal Mountain native, which sometimes even involved sleeping in the mountain’s parking lot as kids. The steeps are outrageous and the jumping is immense, making the reality of this mountain’s challenges undeniable. “It is just great to see all of the familiar faces of people that are still here ripping it up…and lots of new ones as well,” shares Ingrid Backstrom.
