Crested Butte - Southwest Colorado
Surrounded by sheer beauty, Crested Butte is the place to whitewater raft and enjoy nature's splendor. With history embedded in the mining of the 1800s, Crested Butte's future rests on fragile wildflowers and soaring mountain peaks. Home of the Fat Tire Bike Week, the oldest bike festival in the world, the town is near mountain bike trails over scenic passes and four wheel drive roads to old ghost towns. Try fly-fishing in nearby streams or golfing a championship course. Savor campfire cuisine or gourmet restaurants after catching a play or climbing a peak. As the wildflower capital of Colorado, Crested Butte basks in gentle mountain warmth, an inspiration for recreationalists and nature lovers alike. Explore the mountains around Crested Butte in the summer on foot, horseback, mountain bike or with a four wheel drive vehicle. Outdoor activities abound in the national forests and wilderness areas that encircle this unique mountain town.
Connected by a free shuttle during winter months, Crested Butte, Mt. Crested Butte and Crested Butte Ski Area make Crested Butte areas as easy to get to as a run down the bunny hill. Crested Butte offers 1,600 skiable acres as well as the most double-black diamond areas in Colorado. With this to boast, Crested Butte is home to the US Extreme Skiing and Snowboard Championships. With an average of 229 inches of snow each year, this is a great place for other winter sports, including snowmobiling, cross country-skiing, and ice skating.
