Good morning to you! This is Colorado's very own Snow Betty with the snow report for Crested Butte Mountain Resort on Wednesday, March 4, 2009. What a fantastic season it has been so far. We've had over 250 inches of snow and currently have a snow depth of 57 at the top and 46 at midway. With 1250 total acres open and 480 groomed acres, you can find your very own piece of paradise here in Crested Butte. Choose from 104 trails on the mountain, which are accessible to you via 15 lifts, including 4 high speed quads. Today we'll have 69 groomed trails, and the Groomer's Choice will be Ruby Chief.
Today, we'll have a high of 43 degrees and we could see some windy conditions today and tomorrow with snow moving backinto the Gunnison Valley on Friday and Saturday. Spring conditions are in effect right now. Locals are out skiing and riding in their t-shirts, soaking up the Colorado sunshine and awaiting the next snow storm. Spring in Crested Butte means a few things...fun skiing and riding and unheard of travel, lodging and lift ticket specials. Here are a few notable spring packages that offer you a memorable winter Colorado vacation, without breaking the bank.
This March, we are featuring the Chicago Saturday Special. Guests who travel to or from Crested Butte on the new Saturday American Airlines direct flight via Chicago O'Hare will receive FREE SKIING. To receive free lift tickets, guests must book thier lodging through Crested Butte Vacations and fly into and out of Gunnison / Crested Butte Regional Airport through Chicago O'Hare on at least one leg of the itinerary. This offer is available only through booking your reservations through Crested Butte Vacations, which can be reached at 1-800-810-7669.
Bringing the kiddos along for spring break? We've got great news for you. During the month of March, kids traveling with a parent fly and ski for free. Fly in on American Airlines and enjoy sunny, spring skiing at Crested Butte Mountain Resort. Four night air, lift and lodging packages start at just $1,800 for a family of four when staying at the Grand Lodge Crested Butte. The Grand Lodge is one of my favorite places in Crested Butte because of its great indoor/outdoor pool and hot tub, excellent house restaurant, cofffee shop, retail store, and fitness center. This one of a kind special is sure to be the best value in all of ski country.
There are plenty of reasons to make your way to Crested Butte this spring. Visit skicb.com to view what we have to offer, or call Crested Butte Vacations to get the scoop on how to get the most out of your money this ski season. I hope you have a great day and I'll see you on the hill.
