Special Announcements
There’s a chance of snow in the air, so grab the gear and head for the hill today, Saturday, March 12, 2016. Crested Butte Mountain Resort has 15 lifts that all cranking their wheels to serve up 118 fun filled trails, 54 of which have been smoothed out to Colorado’s Best Corduroy and all of which are covered in a 53 inch base. The carving opportunities await on 100% of the beginner, intermediate as well as advance terrain currently open, and if you have some dare devil types in your crew, 96% of the extreme territory is offered up and sure to please. Word from the grooming shack is Lower Ruby Chief is the place to be for the best groomed turns on the hill.
