Camelback Mountain Resort announces CBK Turf! 

Camelback Mountain Resort in Tannersville is pleased to announce one of its newest attractions! CBK Turf is a great opportunity to put on your skis or snowboard, even before the snow has arrived. Designed for skiers and snowboarders who want to work on their terrain park skills, CBK Turf is made of a synthetic material called Powderpak. The Turf starts at a deck platform drop-in, and continues atop a layer of mulch as a soft base material, giving the surface a snow-like feel.

Currently installed is a 20’ flat down box, and a 12’ round bar. The system is interchangeable, giving Camelback the flexibility to install a variety of features, at any point in time. Don’t expect to be riding on anything that you’ve seen from last winter’s park! “We were really excited to open the turf this past summer, and now to carry it into the fall,” remarks Will Croasdale, Terrain Park Manager at Camelback Mountain Resort. Croasdale continues, “The Turf is a great way for skiers and riders to tune their skills before the mountain is even open.”

CBK Turf is open every Saturday from 11:00am to 4:00pm, until the beginning of the winter season. The fee is just $10.00 per day; Camelback Season Pass holders ride free! Visit www.cbkactionsports.com to learn more, and to download a parental release form for riders under 18. Winter Season Pass holders at Camelback receive perks including direct lift access, first trax, retail discounts, food discounts, and more!
