Crested Butte has some of everything for everybody. Lift wait times are rarely more than a few minutes, and the staff here is among the bestfriendly, helpful, and great attitudes. The town of Crested Butte has great shops and restaurants, and even a quaint, old-fashioned movie theater. CB is a bit out of the way, but sure beats the I70 traffic!

Amazing expert terrain Good grooming Cool town Lots of snow Great restaurants Remote Lots of backcountry terrain Fun shopping

The best expert terrain. Lots of lift access to expert terrain as well as hiking access. So much to explore, and crested butte has a really fun base area.

Although a smaller resort, it he snow quality is typically very good making all the terrain extremely fun. Not a very crowded mountain so its great for getting fresh tracks. I would not suggest this place to beginners but higher level skiers will love the variety in difficult terrain the resort provides. The North Face lift and High lift are tons of fun when the snow is great but riders can find great mogul and powder fields on lower areas.

Crested Butte will eat you alive if youre not prepared for it! A lot of the green runs that should likely be rated Blue runs have moguls on them. Its so cold in Crested Butte you could ski the blue runs with ice skates:)) With it being so cold I dont understand why they dont have any enclosed lifts. Beware most locals like to straight line down the easier runs to get back to the lifts. You should be at least an advanced level skier if you truly want to enjoy Crested Butte. You should really like extreme cold too!

Its the last genuine ski town in Colorado. Truly the town is special, and I hope it never changes. The mountain has greens and blues, sure. But the real value lies in the expert only bowls and pistes around the backside. They contain some of the countrys most challenging inbounds runs, and you almost cant decide if its sketchier with exposed rocks and trees littering the slope or with powder that would cloak those landmines and make stopping at that steepness a near impossibility.

Crested Butte is an incredible resort if you have the time and snow to explore the whole resort, especially areas off of groomers, specifically the extremes (North Face, Teocalli Bowl 2). When theres not a ton of snow, its not the greatest as its pretty small. Be prepared for your skis to get a beating, its not uncommon to run over rocks/roots mid season.

Crested Butte is an incredible mountain for intermediate to expert skiers. The terrain can be challenging on many parts of the mountain, however there are parts of the mountain that are perfect for beginner skiers. There are many different zones of the mountain to explore and it never gets old. Make sure to visit Teocalli Bowls while youre there. Its the best skiing I have ever experienced and the powder was untouched and immaculate. I would ski here again if I was given the opportunity.

I really enjoyed the extreme terrain. Its easy to access and there will be a run on the mountain thats challenging for everyone. Its not a very beginner friendly mouton but they do a good job at insulating the easier terrain on the mountain. If your good a skiing come to crested butte.

Great terrain from the groomers to the steeps. Very friendly and caring staff in ski/ride school. The only major issue with this resort like most is the lack of affordable housing for resort workers.
