Happy Saturday all you skiers and riders out there! This is your Crested Butte Mountain Resort snow report for December 20th. What a beautiful weekend it is shaping up to be! I'm happy to report that our incredible snowmaking, grooming, and patrol teams have opened a few more lifts for us today! Goldlink and Teocalli will be up and running, giving you access to some of your favorite runs like Cascade, Elko Park, and Upper Red Lady, just to name a few! Also, the always fun, Tubing Hill opens today for the season and will be open every day from 2:00pm to 5:00pm!
Well, it's another POWDER morning here at Crested Butte Mountain Resort! We received another 4 inches of snow in the last 24 hours, 13 inches in the last 48 hours, and a whopping 46 inches in the last 7 days! This gives us a season total of 80 inches and leaves us with a natural snow depth of 37 inches! Currently 9 lifts are running giving you access to 472 acres of the best skiing on the planet! Today you will have your choice of 64 trails and the conditions on the Mountain will be Powder!
You can expect more snow to fall today with clouds starting to break just a little bit tomorrow. However, more snow is in the forecast for Monday and Tuesday, so get ready all you powder skiers and riders, because we could be in for a great start to the week!
