Way way off the beaten path, and the lack of crowds proves it.  More often than not the lift lines are non-existent.

Nice people working there, reasonable prices for food on the mountain.

If your gonna plan a Colorado Ski Vacation, you should really think about going to CB.

LOTS of terrain, some near vetical stuff on the headwall, and the green runs are fun and long as well.  If you got the guts to ski the peak, your looking at over 3,000 vertical back to the base area!  I didn't ski the peak, but I still rode about 2,000 (guessing??) to the base from the top of Twister.

I missed this thread when it started I see.

Oh, the memories I have of Crested Butte!  I made many, many trips there in the early nineties.  CB is where I learned to ski and where I had hands down the best date of my life.  At the time, my favorite bar was Talk of the Town and favorite restaurant was Danitas.  Hitchhikiing was the accepted mode of transportation.  Love it there!  About fourteen years ago I planned to move there from Connecticut.  It was there that I met Tucker, the old lone black man (at the time) in town.  It was first time I had ever heard of that name and I loved it.  He told me he was a fly in the buttermilk.  I had my post office box reserved and a job all line up (taking people on horseback through the Rockies), but an unexpected pregnancy changed everything.  I sometimes wonder what my life would have been like had I taken the other path.

Hey Ruby - it's still a really cool little town - Danitas is still a great place to get some food - I'll have to look and see if Talk of the Town is still around.  I did a horseback riding day there over Labor Day weekend when we visited for the long weekend.

One of my favorite mountain towns for sure - one of the few that doesn't feel completely touristy, even though it is to a degree.

Interesting fact - the roads in CB weren't paved until the mid '80s.
