Announcements |
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! It may be April, but Crested Butte is still enjoying the fruits of a fantastic winter. We’ve had nine inches of new snow in the last 48 hours, and we’re in the midst of yet another winter storm watch. The winter storm watch is currently in effect until 6 pm on Thursday and here’s what it means to those of us fortunate enough to be in Crested Butte during the last week of the season…
Today, temps will reach into the mid to high 30’s and we’ll see snow showers throughout the day. We can expect 4-7 inches of the white stuff to fall today and another 5-10 inches tonight. For tomorrow, temperatures will be a little lower and we’ll see even more snow, possibly between 3-5 inches. Forecasters are calling for 40% chance of snow on Friday and then, as if we could expect any more out of this season, the weekend will be warm and sunny.
Come celebrate the end of the season with the best-spirited locals in Colorado. During this last week, we not only have ½ price lift tickets for season pass holders from anywhere, and discounted lodging for passholders who make reservations through Crested Butte Vacations, but we are also offering 25% off CB Mountain Schools ski or snowboard lessons. To learn more about lift ticket and lodging specials, call Crested Butte Vacations at 1-800-810-7669, and for information on ski and snowboard lessons, call CB Mountain Schools at 1-800-444-9236.
It’s been a great season this year, and there’s only five days left. For all you locals out there, get out and get it while you can. Thanks to all the visitors who ventured to Crested Butte this season…there’s still five days to come see what Crested Butte is all about. Have a great hump day everyone, and I’ll see you on the hill.
