Announcements
Good morning snow hounds and ski bunnies, and Happy President’s Day to you! If you’re one of the lucky ones who get a break from school or work today, get out and celebrate George Washington under clear, blue American skies. While you’re riding up any one of our four high-speed quads, look behind you at the incredible vistas and think about Abraham Lincoln and his vision. That trace of snow we’ve gotten in the last two days will surely add a little sparkle to any way you celebrate President’s Day. And with over 300 inches of total snowfall this season, and a hefty 85 inch base, you’ve got the opportunity to make today memorable for you…sweet turns on 470 groomed acres of Colorado’s Best Corduroy, accomplishing moguls throughout the mountain and lift-accessing the nation’s best Extreme terrain will surely be imprinted in your memory after a day at Crested Butte Mountain Resort. Looking for even more outdoor fun when you’re finished skiing and riding for the day? Don’t forget to check out the great activities we have at Crested Butte Mountain Resort, like tubing between the Red Lady Express and Silver Queen Lifts, toasting marshmallows around the firepit at the Elevation and Grand Lodge Hotels, or sharing appetizers with your friends during après ski at any of the base area restaurants, including Butte 66, Atmosphere, Avalanche, Woodstone Grill, or Brown Lab Pub. There’s so many perfect ways to round out a great day on the slopes. If you’re not here already, contact the helpful and knowledgeable reservationists at Crested Butte Vacations to find the latest package deals on flights, lodging and lift tickets. To find out more, call Crested Butte Vacations at 1-800-810-7669. Don’t forget that the 17th Annual Extreme Freeskiing Championships will begin this Wednesday with the Junior Big Mountain Qualifiers, and continue through Saturday with the Adult Big Mountain Finals. There is plenty of cash, great prizes, and awards to be had this year. If you’re not competing, join the Crested Butte fan club- get out and cheer on your friends and favorite competitors- if you can ride the blue and hike a little, you can watch from the bottom of each venue, which are announced on the white boards every morning of the competition. The conditions at Crested Butte Mountain Resort are truly too great to miss. With sunny skies forecasted for today and tomorrow, followed by more snow later on in the week, now is the time to make skiing and riding memories. I’ll see you on the hill.
