Good morning! This is Colorado's very own Snow Betty with the snow report for Crested Butte Mountain Resort on Wednesday, February 11, 2009. The conditions on the mountain are spectacular right now. We received 4 inches of new snow in the last 24 hours, 10 inches in the last 48 hours and 13 inches over the past three days. This new snow brings our season snow total to 219 inches.

We are skiing and riding in powder and packed powder, with a base of 58 inches. There's so much accessible terrain at Crested Butte Mountain Resort. We're talking a grand total of 1250 acres, 481 of which is groomed and your choice of 104 trails. If you're feeling adventurous, check out our Extreme Terrain...we're 100% open on the North Face, Teocalli, Spellbound and Third Bowl. If you want to cruise the groomers, you have 75 trails to choose from. 15 out of 16 lifts can shuttle you wherever you want to go, and you're sure to find your own line, and possibly your favorite run of the season, throughout our terrain. You can expect temps to reach 24 today and we've got a high chance of snow every day this week. Get out there and get some for yourself!

The Extreme season has arrived here in Crested Butte! Our mountain has some of the easiest access to what is considered to be the country's best steeps and is recognized as the home to some of the most elite winter athletes. This weekend, the North Face Masters of Snowboarding will be hitting the Butte. The North Face Masters is the first competitive snowboarding tour specifically tailored to fill a competition gap in the sport of Big Mountain Snowboarding. Some of Crested Butte's very best athletes will compete against world-renowned and the best up and coming female and male snowboarders. Registration for the North Face Masters takes place from 9 to 3 on Thursday and competitors will be ripping it up all day Friday and Saturday.
