Crested Butte Colorado

Crested Butte, located in the heart of Colorado's Rocky Mountains at the end of Boxwood Canyon, is a unique ski destination with a great cowboy town and some of the best extreme skiing in the world, plus lots of mellow cruisers for families. Crested Butte hosts some of the best extreme skiing, Colorado's first ever X-Games, the legendary U.S. Extreme Freeskiing Championships, the U. S. Extreme Freeskiing Telemark Championships, and some great hike to terrain. An authentic western ski town makes this a great family ski destination, along with good old Rocky Mountain hospitality.

1,167 acres
12,162' summit elevation, 2,787' vertical
