The Best Summer On-Snow Park In The U.S. Is At Woodward Copper

Head to Woodward Copper and get on the snow this summer. The Pipeline Park provides a full offering of jumps, rails and other features to shred. There’s not only one park but two – the Big Island Park is located at the base of the American Eagle chairlift in Copper’s Center Village. This park is open to campers but the general public can check it out on the weekends. The best part is Big Island is open from June to October (weather permitting).

On the snow training in the summer is very beneficial, especially as a competitive snowboarder, since most of your counterparts won’t touch the snow during the summer months. In the winter, progression can be hindered by cold temperatures and missing time on the snow because you have to go in and warm up. In the summer at Woodward Copper, that’s not an issue.

During the summer months at Copper Mountain, the daily high temperatures are around 70 degrees and the daily low temperatures are around freezing. The warmth throughout the day provides you with ideal conditions to snowboard in, while the low temperatures help set the snow at night and preserve the snowpack.

Copper Mountain has received 229″ of snowfall this season, which is about 75% of their 305″ season average. March is their snowiest month and there’s plenty of snow in the forecast. This means that Copper Mountain will have plenty of snow to make for another amazing summer shredding the park.
