Dark Summit is a snowboarding game developed by Radical Entertainment and released in 2001 for Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, and PlayStation 2. Set on Mt. Garrick, a ski resort openly hostile to snowboarders, the game casts the player as a boarder locked in conflict with Chief O'Leary, a ranger who has restricted and ultimately sealed off the mountain's summit to all snowboarders. Progressing through the game involves navigating a mountain environment where access to certain areas has been deliberately blocked, with the overarching goal of uncovering why the summit was closed and reclaiming the mountain. The game blends freestyle snowboarding mechanics with mission-based objectives set across the slopes and restricted zones of Mt. Garrick, framing its tricks and traversal within an adversarial narrative between the snowboarding community and the resort's authorities.
