It doesn't show signs of stopping, but my dear that means more hucking! According to my friend, Big Buck, you better tuck, when you huck, so you don't get stuck! It is Sunday, December 14th and another powderific day here at Crested Butte Mountain Resort! What a wonderful way to end the week with 10 inches of fresh snow that has fallen in the past 24 hours! That's 18 inches in the past 48 hours and it's still snowing!! Like I said earlier, it doesn't show signs of stopping either, as the snow is going to continue to fall through Wednesday while temperatures will remain in the high teens. Well, my friends, it seems the holidays have come early to us this year!
The groomers, snowmakers and ski patrol are working very hard making an incredible 329 acres of terrain open for your skiing and riding pleasure. That is a total of 41 trails that can be accessed by Red Lady Express, Silver Queen Lift, Paradise Lift and the Adult and Kid's Magic carpet. "The only thing more fun than putting the ropes up is taking 'em down, " according to Buck, the ski patroller. Thank you groomers for grooming 276 acres and recommending Lower Keystone as your groomer's choice today. There is so much yummy goodness out there, you can't go wrong-go on, bend those knees and see what true Paradise feels like!
As the snow keeps coming down, you want to make sure you have the proper gear to make your day the best it can be. From waterproof jackets and pants to warm mittens, hats and helmets, Crested Butte Mountain Resort has plenty of shops to outfit you perfectly for any weather Mother Nature throws at you. The new Thin Air Sports is located in Mountain Square, that has top of the line outerwear that not only keeps you protected but makes you look good while doing it! There are more retail shops located in The Treasury Center, as well. No matter what you may be looking for, Crested Butte Mountain Resort knows how to do it in style!
There is absolutely no reason why you shouldn't come to Crested Butte this Holiday Season! In addition to all the great skiing and riding you'll be enjoying, Crested Butte Mountain Resort is offering out of this world skiing and lodging specials! Like the Friends and Family Fly Free special that features one free airline ticket for every two airline tickets purchased! Or the incredible Ski Free special where your skiing is absolutely free when you book lodging through December 17th. Too good to be true? Not for you!
