Good Morning Skiers and Riders! This is your Crested Butte Mountain Resort snow report for Friday, January 23rd. Winter has returned to the Gunnison Valley overnight with 3 inches of new snow. I've got even more great news for all you powder lovers out there...snow is in the forecast for the entire longterm period meaning we should continue to see more snowfall throughout the rest of the week! Temperatures will also remain in the comfortable, lower thirties. So get ready folks, because we could be doing a bunch more powder skiing and riding over the next few days!

Currently, 15 lifts are up and running, giving you access to 102 trails and 1191 acres of terrain! Keep in mind as you make your way around the Mountain today that the Twister lift is closed, but will continue to reopen on the weekends. If it's groomed runs you are in the mood for today, then you've got your choice of 70 trails to choose from. For the ultimate groomed run, take a ride down Crystal because it is our groomer's choice!
