A happy Tuesday morning skiers and riders of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. Today is the 21st day in February of 2012 and it's looking like it's going to be another fabulous day on the slopes, as 5 inches of snow have fallen in the past 48 hours, 1 of which fell overnight, creating a soft and deependable 47 inch base. In addition to phenomenal snow conditions, the weather isn't looking too shabby either as there is a good chance for snow today and lasting through the week, with temperatures reaching a comfortable 30 degrees.
Celebrate Mardi Gras with beads, fun and of course some unbelievable shredding on Crested Butte Mountain; and thanks to the entire mountain crew, 98% of the mountain is open, including 100% of beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain, as well as 60% of Crested Butte's extreme terrain. The 95 open trails can be accessed by the 14 lifts that will begin spinning at 9:00 am, with 70 of those slopes being perfectly groomed, by the hard working groomers, who recommend Jokerville as their groomer's choice of the day. You think that's all that's available for your skiing and riding pleasure? Well, think again, as there are 3 terrain parks open that include jumps, rails, boxes and southwestern Colorado's only super pipe, suitable for all levels of jibbers. This mountain really has something out there for everyone!
Crested Butte Mountain Resort is the place to be now through the end of the season. Not only are the snow conditions absolutely amazing, but the deals going on are pretty stellar as well. Right now through early March, when you book three nights of lodging and three days of skiing, you will receive the fourth night of lodging and fourth day of skiing for FREE! Go ahead and call Crested Butte Vacations at 1.800.810.7669 to book your vacation today!
Happy Tuesday, skiers and riders! Make it a great Fat Tuesday!
