Happy holidays skiers and riders! Today is Wednesday, December 24th and ANOTHER powder day here at Crested Butte Mountain Resort! Mother nature has dumped 6 more inches of snow in the past 24 hours! TWO FEET of snow has come down in the past 48 hours making our rocking snowfall so far this year 109 inches! The wonderful snow has created a stupendous 48 inch base spread across 718 skiable acres, 481 of which are groomed. 13 out of 16 chair lifts are open and running, leading you to 84 exciting trails. Whether it's powder you're seeking or those fresh groomers, we've got something out there for everyone!

Today should bring partly cloudy skies to Crested Butte Mountain Resort where temperatures will remain in the mid teens. But I hope Santa bundles up tonight as more snow is in the forecast starting tonight and continuing through Friday. That's right there is a 100% chance of snow for tomorrow! It's shaping up to be the best holiday season ever!

The holidays are literally just around the corner and if you still haven't gotten that one person on your list something, you've come to the right place! The shops located throughout the base of Mt. Crested Butte have anything you may be looking for. From top of the line ski and snowboard clothes and accessories to small trinkets and memories of your stay at Crested Butte, the diverse shops are sure to have something for everyone on your list!

In addition to bringing you some of the greatest snow conditions for this holiday season, Crested Butte Mountain Resort has some deals you just can't pass up!
