The K2 Big Mountain CHILL Series is a four day freeskiing and freeriding competition held at Craigieburn Valley and Mt Olympus ski areas. Competitors essentially climb to the top of the mountain and ski down unfathomable terrain in their bid to score points. Scored on line choice (difficulty of the run), speed, control, fluidity, and airs (airbourne manoeuvres) makes for spectacular viewing. Both Mt Olympus and Craigieburn have on mountain lodges which are perfect viewing spot to stop, relax and enjoy the entertainment.
