Special Announcements
It’s another amazing weekend to be playing on the slopes of Crested Butte Mountain Resort as we see another inch of powder blanket our mountain on this Super Saturday, January 16.  That's a total of three inches out of this storm in the last 48 hours, with the possibility for another three to fall by tonight. A soft 43 inch base is spread across all 854 acres of thrilling terrain available and 15 lifts are ready to lead you to 94 snow filled trails, 58 of which have been smoothed out to the best corduroy you’ll find in Colorado.  If the best groomed turns on the hill are what you seek, look no further than Prospector, our groomer’s top pick run of the day!

The current focus is on Terrain Skiing – Groomed, Bumps, Crud, and Powder. The goal for the middle weeks of the season is to focus on taking your stance as well as alignment foundation into a variety of the terrain you will find here at Crested Butte and start to adapt technical focuses towards specific terrain and snow selections.
