Announcements
Good morning lovers of bluebird skies and phenomenal spring skiing conditions! Today is Thursday, March 15th, 2012 and Crested Butte Mountain Resort is the place to be, as the day is looking nothing short of spectacular with sunny skies and temperatures reaching the lower 50's today. In fact, this weather is expected to round out the work week, so don't forget your sunscreen and head up to the hill.

Once you get up here, you'll have options galore as 98% of the mountain is open, including 100% of beginner, intermediate and advanced terrain and 60% of the extremes. The 97 trails that are open, 70 of which have been groomed to perfection, can be accessed by the 15 lifts that will begin spinning at 9:00 am this morning. If you're looking for some advice as to where to shred, the groomer's recommend Lower Keystone as their groomer's choice for the day.

Speaking of stellar days, there are a few more spectacular ones coming up this weekend, as Crested Butte Mountain Resort's FestEVOL is happening this Saturday and Sunday, March 17th and 18th, with headlining bands Barenaked Ladies on Saturday, while Guster and Big Head Todd and the Monsters will be performing on Sunday. Book your tickets online at www.skicb.com/festevol, today, because tickets will no longer be available online after midnight tonight for Saturday's events and midnight tomorrow, for Sunday's events. But if for some reason you can't get to a computer tonight, tickets will be available for purchase for $30 at the Adventure Center or by calling Crested Butte Vacations at 1.800.810.7669.

Just because spring is around the corner, doesn't mean the ski season is almost over. There's still plenty of time to shred this fabulous mountain, and with the Colorado 3 For All Pass, you can ski or ride for incredibly low rates. Ski any three days from March 23 through April 8 or November 21 through December 20 for just $177 per Adult Pass. Don't wait and buy your 3 For All Pass today, as this pass is only available for purchase until Wednesday, March 21st.

Happy Thursday, skiers and riders! Make it a great one!
