Digital creator Richard Oldham bought 400 acres in the mountains of Utah and built an off-grid cabin to enjoy with family and friends. As an avid snowboarder, Oldham enjoys touring his property and discovering new features on his land. Last winter he was out for tour when he came upon rock outcropping that would have been perfect for jumps but it was overgrown with trees and inaccessible in its current state.

In a major development for freeride skiing and snowboarding, Powder Mountain in Utah has been selected as a host of the new Super Sessions on Travis Rice's Natural Selection Tour (NST)-one of the most progressive and athlete-driven freeride competition circuits in the world. Super Sessions are a new opening stage introduced for the 2026 season. These high-energy, collaborative events are hosted across three iconic global destinations: the deep powder of Myōkō, Japan, the remote backcountry of British Columbia, and at Powder Mountain, Utah.

Skiing and snowboarding in Colorado is a truly unique experience. The unmistakable peaks of the majestic Rocky Mountains, the sheer variety of the resorts, and the plentiful annual snowfall make this state one of the most coveted winter playgrounds. The best Colorado ski resorts each offer something unique, like world-class art exhibits in Aspen, backcountry cat skiing in Crested Butte, or whiskey tastings in Breckenridge, to name a few.
