The subject of this article only appears in the Stargate movie and contradicts SG-1/Atlantis canon. This article covers a subject that is not part of SG-1/Atlantis canon, despite being referenced in the original movie, and thus should not be taken as a part of the "real" Stargate universe. Caution is advised.

In the Stargate movie, Creek Mountain was the military base where the Stargate was located. In Stargate SG-1, it was changed to Cheyenne Mountain.

There are three possible explanations:

• The gate was moved between the film and "Children of the Gods."
• In the SG-1/Atlantis continuity, the gate was always stored in Cheyenne Mountain. The change is merely a retcon.
• The name of Creek Mountain changed to Cheyenne Mountain, even though it is the same place (just changed names).

Considering the facility the Stargate is stored in is practically identical in both (in both cases its a former missile silo) and there has never been evidence that the gate was moved, the latter seems to be more likely, especially given other contradictions between the film and the series.

Behind the scenesEdit

There is no Creek Mountain military installation in real life, but Cheyenne Mountain Complex is an actual military base. Due to the great similarity between the two, it seems reasonable to conclude the former is merely a filmic clone of the latter. In fact, according to the Internet Movie Database, the entrance to Creek Mountain used in the film was reused from the 1983 movie WarGames, where it doubled for the entrance to Cheyenne Mountain.
