Ok... so I am trying to decide between one of the two for this coming summer. I don't know which to go to, and I don't know which sessions to go to. Can you guys help me? And pls don't just be like "COC ROCKS!!!" - actually tell me why you liked it... i.e/ food, vibe, activities off hill, etc...

Pls let me know all of your opinions as I have never been to a summer camp

camp of champions was deffinatly a fun place to be this summer, i loved it and was possibly one of the greatest times ive had ever. the park was excellent, the food was excellent and the activitys were amazing. i would go back in a heartbeat. the vibe was soo chill and you could just go up to anyone and talk to htem or ask them how to do a trick and they would tell you.
the only thing that wasnt that great was the coaching. i learned everythign i wanted to learn and more(which was alot), but here and there the coaches were elusive.
if you want the best coaching on the glacier deffinatly hit up momentum cause they by far have way better coaching than anyh other camp and they have a pretty dope park with sick jumps and rails.

high north for sure. it is a way chill place and almost all the stuff is good. food is amazing.(girls at earls) activities are sick esp. water ramping. alot smaller camp so you get to know almost everyone. coaches are chill and hotel is dope. also park is really fun not as big as coc but less people again and all skiers. this year high north had sick and easy to hit jumps (didnt have to hike to hit em like cocs) and Doug Bishop works at H.N.


i rest my case

you didnt have to hike for coc's jumps...you just took the t-bar to the top and traversed a bit. and that was only for the 85ft step up and the 65ft which was either a travers or 15ft hike...

mometum = best coaching but a crappy lane. i had a lot of fun there tho. if i ever go to a camp again it would most likely be high north. but consider the following: the lift lines a COC are fucking terrible. for that reason i do not recomend going there. however they have the sickest park in the summer this side of the equator.

I, LOVED coc.. the lift lines are like 10 minutes MAX so dont really worry about that.  EVERYTHING is so dialed its amazing when i hit the 65 ft. table the lip to landing was so smooth it felt like i never left the ground when i landed cause it was on the exact angle, the food is pretty good everyone is so chill.. ken let us sneak out to saran wrap luke van valins car at 11.  the vibe was awsome i met some pretty cool people and hellz yee the most fun ever... BUT i may try High North 2 summers from now or possibly this summer.

High North. Their park isn't as big as COC's but also, you don't have to deal with snowboarders either. Also HN has a really sick steep line above the park which is always fun to hike. High North has some guys that have been around freeskiing from the birth, which is the best because they know how to teach the tricks the best way, considering they invented a good amount of them.

If you're just looking to ski on the best possible features, go to COC. If you want a "camp" experience, go to HN. COC has the sickest jumps on the glacier hands down, and a huge amount of rails and boxes too.

COC is giving a $400 incentive if booked before November 15th.  Every year the price goes up a bit this is a great deal for an awesome camp.
