COMING FALL 2024!
CONSTRUCTION NOW UNDERWAY
Wy'East Mountain Academy Construction Progress, Banger Bags. July 2024.
- $500,000 FUNDING GAP -
YOUR GIFT IS STILL NEEDED: Serving as a monument to Wy’East’s culture of high-performance, this “best in the world” jump will not only develop the next generation of Olympic skiers & snowboarders, but its use of side-by-sides on a reclaimed logging road to return athletes to the top will also provide access to miles of mountain bike trails and features on the Wy’East Campus.
The side-by-sides will safely return our student athletes to the top of the jump allowing them to focus energy on progression instead of burning their legs hiking back to the top. Preservation of athlete energy will also result in significantly safer training sessions.
