The Sarge’s Mt. Baker Cabin is the Beating Heart of Snowboarding + the LBS

If the Legendary Mt. Baker Banked Slalom is snowboardings duct taped soul, then Patrick McCarthy’s (aka The Sarge) PNW cabin is it’s beating heart. Every year during contest time crews of riders, including many 686 affiliates, hunker down and let The Sarge take care of them. This is what snowboarding is all about!

Sample:

This cabin is an oasis. There’s no cell service, no WiFi, and no cable, just a shelf full of games–dominos, UNO, and one full of riddles that’ll make your head spin. Tricky bastards who came up with that one.

When you’re here, Pat’s in charge. That’s why they call him the Sarge. They also call him Chef Boardin’ Gordon Ramsay, which gets shortened to Boardin’ Gordon, and ultimately Gord, Gord has his own way of cooking things that hinges on his trusty “skittle grillet” as he once called it. But I think he meant “griddle skillet”. Whatever the red cooking device is called, in it Pat combines all the ingredients and somehow 10 minutes later, food is served, with a Raindawgler on the side. Those come from the fridge, not the skittle grillet.
