From the people
Is there a better ski shop on the planet? JP was so friendly, expert in his binding repair and recommendations, and it was even hard to get him to take what anyone else would’ve charged for his amazing expertise in repair of a very fussy binding issue. Plus, the schwag (and the beer!)—top notch all around. 10 stars

The people here are great! I came in a few weeks before the Grand Traverse to get a new backcountry ski set up before the race. Brandon talked me through what set up would be best for me and fitted my boots several times the week leading up to the race. I would not have survived without Cripple Creek Backcountry. Great customer service. Highly recommend.

Had a trip to Denali planned and needed a pair of ski boots that would be comfortable to wear for 20 days straight. Didn't know if it was possible, but Nick at Cripple Creek helped me try on every combination of boot and insole and heat mold them to my feet. He also helped me build an emergency kit for backcountry ski/boot repair. The boots worked great. The team at CCB knows what they're doing and it's well worth the money to get fitted by experts.

The Carbondale shop did an excellent job of mounting one new pair of skis and remounting a pair of race skis. The race skis are touchy because there's no adjustment, so they have to be just right. So, thanks very much!!I also love Cripple Creek BC's commitment to community events--races, outings, avy talks, etc.Keep up the good work!

Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Definitely went above and beyond to help take care of my needs. As a novice, I especially appreciated the friendly, easy going atmosphere. I definitely feel fortunate to get to shop here.
