Crested Butte is one of the great gems of the North American ski world, offering a down-to-earth, authentic Colorado Rocky Mountain skiing experience without the glitter and glitz-or the crowds-found in places like Aspen and Vail. Presenting advanced skiers with some of the most dramatic and challenging slopes anywhere in North America along with a healthy dose of Colorado sunshine and superb mid-continental champagne powder snow, Crested Butte offers arguably the best extreme skiing in the United States.
The town itself is a treasure of authentic Colorado, an old coal-mining town designated as a National Historic District in 1974, with a plethora of Victorian structures lovingly preserved and restored but without of a trace of the artificiality found in the glamour magnets to the north. Variously described as authentic, laid back, down to earth, and unpretentious, Crested Butte, with the mountain rising dramatically above the valley, offers great atmosphere, superior friendliness, and a quintessential Colorado experience along with some of the most exhilarating skiing in the country.
