The North Face Frontier 2026 4-star Freeride Qualifier delivered a seriously impressive day of competition at The Remarkables’ Alta Chutes, with some of the best snow conditions seen for a 4-star event.
With many of the athletes calling it some of the best snow conditions they’ve seen for a 4-Star event, the stage was set for an epic day of competition. From the opening drop to the final run, the level was high, the field was throwing down, and the mountain provided the perfect canvas for big lines and even bigger performances.
The only things working against the riders were the wind and visibility - but even those couldn’t take the edge off what was an outstanding day of competition.
Our Mountainwatch team were up there to capture all the action and have put together a full wrap of the day.
