Happy Holidays! This is Colorado's very own Snow Betty with the snow report for Crested Butte Mountain Resort on Monday, December 22, 2008. We are still in the middle of a great winter storm. We've gotten two inches of snow in the last 24 hours, five inches in the last 48 hours and a hefty storm total of 39 inches in the last seven days.
Our total snowfall for the season is now over 14 feet! With the opening of the East River and Prospect Lifts yesterday, we gained access to even more terrain- now 96% of the mountain is open in 610 acres of skiing and riding terrain. 13 of our 16 lifts are quickly transporting people up the mountain, giving them access to 81 trails of their choice. The entire country knows that snow is in our forecast for the next five days...which leaves me asking, what are you waiting for?
The skiing and riding is stellar right now, so if you're not here already, I suggest you plan your next visit. Call Crested Butte Vacations, our official central reservation service, at 1-800-810-7669. The friendly folks at Crested Butte Vacations can help you plan every detail of your visit, from booking flights, and making lodging reservations to fastening your lift tickets onto your jacket.
My friends at Crested Butte Vacations are making your travel to Crested Butte even easier this winter season with the best flight deals in Colorado. Crested Butte Mountain Resort is offering free airline tickets though our "Friends and Family Fly Free" promotion, which features one free airline ticket for every two airline tickets purchased. This special offer includes five nights lodging, four days of lift tickets, airfare and ground transportation. Don't wait...book this deal now through Crested Butte Vacations at 1-800-810-7669, and be sure to ask about the $30 baggage credit when flying in and out of the Gunnison/Crested Butte Regional Airport.
If you're planning on visiting between January 4 and February 13th, you can take advantage of the "Kids Fly Free" offer through American Airlines. Receive one free child ticket, ages 12 and under, with each paying adult. Call 1-888-879-7317 for details on getting the kiddos here for their own skiing and riding adventures! Everyone loved Rock on Ice this weekend, and if you haven't seen their creations, be sure to stop by Mountaineer Square this week. You'll find amazing works of art cut out in glistening ice, as well as some great photo ops for you and the family.
This is Colorado's very own Snow Betty wishing you Happy Holidays...I'll see you on the hill.
