Two million acres of National Forest on the doorstep, a historic mining town below, and a mountain that changes character four times a year.
The valley is a completely different place depending on when you arrive. Choose the one you're planning for.
Ski and snowboard, fat biking, snowmobiling, dog sledding and ice fishing — with the lifts a five-minute walk from the door.
The Wildflower Capital of Colorado, 750+ miles of singletrack, rafting, climbing and alpine hiking.
The aspens turn for about two weeks and the whole valley goes gold. The quietest and prettiest time to come.
Corn snow and empty runs at the start, then the bike park opening and the first wildflowers.
Crested Butte town sits a few minutes down the valley from Mt. Crested Butte — a preserved mining town of painted Victorian buildings, independent shops, bars and restaurants, with the peaks closing off the end of every street.
The free Mountain Express runs between the two every 20 minutes in season, and the stop is steps from the Inn. You do not need a car to get down there and you do not need to worry about driving back.
Running every year since 1986. The reason Crested Butte is the Wildflower Capital of Colorado.
One of the oldest mountain bike festivals anywhere, in a valley with 750+ miles of singletrack.
Summer season in the town and at the mountain base.
Artists and makers through the town over a summer weekend.
Film in the mountains, in the historic town.
Closes out the season as the aspens turn and before the snow arrives.
