About Crested Butte, CO:

So, where is this place anyway? (Town Map | State Map)

If you already know about CB, then we're preaching to choir, but otherwise....

What's so special about this place called Crested Butte?
If you're unfamiliar with Crested Butte, it is a true mountain town Shangri-la.

At roughly 4.5 hrs and a couple of Mtn passes from Denver, it's not the easiest place to get to, BUT that's what makes this place so special. Called one of the last true Colorado Mtn towns, this place is a real diamond in the rough! Easier than driving from Denver, you can fly direct to Gunnison from many cities across the country - then you're only a short 35 min drive (no Mtn passes) to Crested Butte. Little known fact: Gunnison has the second longest runway in CO after Denver International. So, forget the unpredictability of flights into smaller (and more weather effected) airports like Aspen and Telluride. The regularly scheduled jet service is very dependable and convenient.

You won't find the weekend warrior crowds or the Aspen glitz here, instead you'll immediately feel relaxed and at home in a place that defines down to earth. This is a town where you'll find local ski bums and wealthy second home owners chatting over a beer without ever knowing which is which. To come to Crested Butte is to get away from it all and get back to the basics. A tightly knit community at ~1500 full time (in-town) residents, the charm and smiles are everywhere.

Being in a small Mtn Town doesn't mean you have to suffer either! Looking for good food? You will be amazed at the countless eateries in town and on the mountain that offer delicious food. From outrageous tamales to gourmet French, you will find everything here to satisfy your palate. Looking for a place to enjoy a drink? A world class Margarita, Bloody Mary or pint of IPA? No problem. How about a glass of Reserve Oregon Pinot... yup, it's all right here. Music, dancing, lots of shopping all at your fingertips in this post card perfect town.

Oh, you say you're active?
Let's get down to business now... after all, this is why you're coming to Crested Butte, right?

Wintertime offers some of the most outrageous skiing in the country. Feather light powder coats The 'Butte, opening up miles of legendary skiing and boarding. From endless, sun drenched groomed cruisers to some of the most extreme terrain out there (US Extreme Freeskiing Championships are held here), you won't be bored on this mountain. In addition to the resort itself, the local mountains offer some incredible backcountry terrain for those seeking a true adventure. Maybe you're in the mood for a breathtaking cross country tour? The Nordic center in Crested Butte has miles upon miles of groomed trails and even offers full moon trips. Hop off the back deck, and you're on the x-country trail - no driving! Snowshoeing, horseback riding, winter fishing are just a few others to mention.

They say you come for the winter, but stay for the summer...
Crested Butte explodes with beauty and activity when the snow gives way to the long summer days. The wildflower capital of the state, you will be hard pressed to find a place more spectacular. Some of the greatest Mtn Biking in the world is at your fingertips here (all out your front door) - you couldn't even exhaust all the great riding in a single summer. Featuring Fat Tire Week, the longest running bike festival! Looking for some road riding? The sky is the limit with the numerous epic rides, spanning multiple mtn passes. Golf, fly fishing, backpacking, horseback riding.... or just lounging in the sun w/ an afternoon dip in one of the countless nearby lakes.
