From time to time we will have special sales listed on this page and for reading our mission. 

In the growing domination of big box outdoor Cripple Creek Backcountry is a rare breed. We are a small, independently owned business built on the idea that great gear, service and support are paramount to enjoying human powered mountain travel. We go out of our way to recruit and train mountain sport lovers creating not just jobs, but sustainable careers in the outdoor industry.

Great prices all year round

It's a little known fact that manufacturers often set prices for their goods. The Minimum Advertised Price, or MAP, is a number we as a retailer have to comply with. Whenever possible, we list prices below MAP, but when we can do that is often out of our hands. 

We have our shops in some of the most high rent places in the country. Why? Because that's where the skiers are. We guarantee the same prices on our website that you get in any of the stores. And we always list closeout and clearance options when inventory--and manufacturers--allow.

Paying list prices keeps small ski shops alive

If you've read this far you may be wondering: so...how do you get a deal? Here's the thing about deals: Everything from our employee pay structure, to the location of our shops, to our great prices are set to work in concert with our fit and service guarantees, so rest assured, when you choose to shop with us, you are always getting the best deal out there.
