Crested Butte Mountain Resort and Mountain Sports International have teamed up to bring the US and World Freeskiing Tours to the birthplace of Big Mountain competitions. Crested Butte was the first in the US to launch an Extreme Skiing contest, this season marks twenty years. Competitors vie for the largest cash purse on the Freeskiing Circuit and sweet prizes from all the sponsors. These guys are quite amazing so stop by and check it out!

All sorts of fun happening in Crested Butte today! Swing by Butte 66 for an apres ski drink and some music by Rock Bottom starting at 3:30. Butte 66 is located at the base area and is one of the most popular apres ski bar and eatery on the mountain. This fully updated facility is here to offer warm sammie melts, specialty topped hot dogs and homemade chili. And of course you can't pas up on one of their signature milkshakes! After your afternoon on the hill head into town for some more live music. Better Late then Never will be playing some good old rock and roll at the Talk of the Town at 7:30pm. Then Steamboat Spring's String Board Theory will jam out at the Eldo at 10:30pm with their unique fusion of funk, reggae and rock with an electronic feel. It's a great way to start off your three day weekend!
