Arc’teryx presents: WELCOME TO THE PIT

Arc’Teryx Presents: Welcome To The Pit.

High Up into the Northwest Territories in Yellowknife resides a place built from the love of snowboarding.
In 2011, Steve Matthews had a bright idea—with his kids completely hooked on snowboarding, he rallied a few friends and set out to build Yellowknife’s first and only rope tow. Without city permission or permits, the team went to work on the abandoned gravel mine on the outskirts of town, creating what would eventually become the epicenter of community and snow-sliding in the Northwest Territories. Welcome to the Pit.
