Announcements
It's another FANTASTIC POWDER DAY on Crested Butte Mountain Resort, on this Friday, the 2nd day in March of 2012. An incredible 8 inches of snow have fallen on Crested Butte Mountain in the last 24 hours, making the two-day total a whopping 13 inches. Over the course of the past week, Mother Nature has dumped more than 2 feet on the mountain, creating a soft and powder packed 61 inch DEEPendable base. Today's snow report gets even better, if you can believe it, as the snow is expected to continue coming down for most of today, with temperatures reaching the upper teens.

Powder is clearly the word of the day, so go out there and get some! With 98% of the mountain open, including 100% of beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain, as well as 60% of the extremes, there's plenty of that luscious white stuff for everyone! In fact, 97 powderific trails are open, allowing for powder shots no matter where you go. But if you're legs are feeling the need for some cruisers, well, 75 of those slopes have been delicately groomed by the hard working groomers, who recommend Lower Keystone and Warming House Hill as their groomer's choice of the day. No matter which one of the 14 lifts you decide to take some rides on, there is something out there to make everyone smile.
