| Set amid towering mountain peaks, Crested Butte is a wonderful and truly unspoiled Colorado mountain town. The old Victorian town is surrounded by three wilderness areas and more than a million acres of National Forest. Three miles from the town is the resort base area of Mt. Crested Butte, a modern ski village complete with lodging, dining, shopping, and conference facilities. The resort and town are connected by a free shuttle bus. Crested Butte offers some of the steepest lift-served ski terrain in the USA. Extreme Limits is 550 acres of steep and deep, backcountry-style, expert-only skiing and riding. Author/extreme skier Lito Tejada-Flores calls Extreme Limits "the best adventure skiing in the Rockies." The area is avalanche controlled but ungroomed. | |
