Good morning Crested Butte Mountain Resort! Today is Wednesday, December 16th and it's going to be another fabulous day out on the slopes. With over 3 feet of snow that has fallen in the past 7 days, 2 of which fell in the past 48 hours, the 43 inch base is skiing and riding better than ever. In addition to the phenomenal snow conditions, the weather is looking just as spectacular with skies becoming partly sunny today and temperatures reaching the low 30's. The chance of snow returns tomorrow with temperatures remaining in the low 30's. It just gets better every day! Take your pick on any of the 4 lifts open, including Silver Queen, Red Lady Express, Paradise Lift and the Magic Carpet, leading you to a total of 48 trails, 43 of which have been groomed. Ski Patrol, groomers and snow makers continue to work diligently day and night opening more skiable acres every day. On top of the 329 acres open, 260 of which have been groomed, the jib park, located on Warming House Hill is open and ready to get ridden on. From rails and boxes to jumps and other features, the jib park has something for every level of jibber. 49% of the mountain is open today, consisting of 48% beginner and intermediate terrain and 54% advanced terrain; with so much open, everyone is sure to end the day with a smile on their face! If the amount of snow isn't reason enough to visit, how does buy one get one free airline tickets sound to you? Listen up, as this deal is so amazing you might need to hear it twice before you believe it! For one week only, you can buy one airline ticket and get one free!
