Announcements
Good morning Crested Butte Mountain Resort! Today is Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 and I am ecstatic to say that it's shaping up to be a stellar powder day! It is with excitement that I can report 3 inches of snow has fallen in the past 24 hours, and more is expected throughout the day, making the 28 inch powder packed base better than ever! While temperatures will stay in the mid 20's today, your skiing and riding will be nothing less than spectucular.

Thanks to the hard working groomers, snow makers and ski patrollers, you can take your pick from one of the 4 lifts open including the Red Lady Express, Paradise Lift and the Adult and Kid's Magic Carpet. From there, you can soar down any of the 18 runs spread across 138 acres, 110 of which are groomed to perfection!

As you're taking Mountain Express, the free shuttle from town to the mountain (and back again), some of your nerves might be creeping up with all the powder lying on the mountain. Well have no fear, Crested Butte Mountain Resort has award winning ski and snowboard instructors that are sure to make you a magnificent skier or rider no matter your age or ability. The ski and snowboard instructors are there to not only improve Adult's abilities, but the little tikes' abilities as well. The newly renovated Kids' Ski and Ride School is now home to Camp CB, where children's group and private lessons are available for all ages and abilities. So whether it's you that would like a touch up of your skills or maybe your youngster would like to learn new tricks, Crested Butte Ski and Ride Schools have something out there for everyone!
