Good Morning Folks this is your Crested Butte Mountain Resort snow report for Saturday, February 28th! I'm happy to report that we have received 1 new inch of fresh snow in the last 24 hours and it looks like we're in for a beautiful weekend as we round up the shortest month of the year! You can expect temperatures to remain in the mid thirties with sunny skies in the forecast for today and partly cloudy skies expected tomorrow. The conditions on the Mountain today will be powder, so come up and experience for yourself what Colorado skiing and riding is all about!

Today you'll have your choice of 15 scenic lifts, giving you access to 104 trails all spread out across 1250 acres of terrain. Four hundred and eighty of those acres have been groomed into "Colorado's Best Corduroy", so don't forget to take a run down the Paradise Bowl because it is our groomer's choice for today! It's been a great season so far with a total of 255 inches of snowfall. We've got a natural snow depth of 70 inches and 100% of the entire mountain, including our famous extreme terrain, is open!
