Nikita Iceland Park Project
From Graham,...
They think it’s all over….it is now!
The Nikita Iceland Park Project finishes its 5th year.
First and foremost we want to say thanks to our sponsor Nikita, our media partners
Onboard, SCUK and Hot-Zone and all the guests who have come out to IPP over
the years to make the camp what it is.
No other place on earth, it
offers landscape and
activities that are truly
original and certainly not
found in any other
snowboard camp. Hopefully
we will see you next year to
check it all out.
