The family can enjoy mini golf, bungee trampolines, a climbing wall, tubing hill and a zip-line. The Adventure Park is conveniently located at the base of the ski area, next to the Treasury Building and the Red Lady lift.

Backcountry Ski & Mountaineering | A growing number of adventure athletes have taken to the backcountry for fresh snow, tranquility, and exploration. Whether you are experienced in avalanche terrain or new to backcountry travel, there are plenty of options in Crested Butte to get your powder turns in …especially in the spring.
Crested Butte Avalanche Center | If you intend on going out in the Crested Butte backcountry be sure to check in with the Crested Butte Avalanche Center web-page first. This local resource is filled by professionals who study snow conditions on local mountains. It’ll give you a greater understanding of what to expect in our backyard. They release daily updates and forecasts every morning, as snow conditions can change in a heartbeat.
Guided Tours | Adventure seekers only: For the few who want to experience first tracks from over 12,000 feet, there are many places to choose from and guides to get you there. Climb local 12k & 13k peaks along with some 14ers in the Elk Mountain Range and enjoy sweet rides down. Irwin Guides offers many trips to fit your skill level. Guided ski trips extend from Crested Butte all the way to Monarch Pass featuring short day trips to overnight hut trips. Experienced guides will take you to the goods to enjoy safe, yet powdery conditions through glades, open powder fields and even above tree line. Split boards or backcountry ski rentals are available. You will need to bring your own avalanche safety tools. Price depends on client guide ratio: For one person it’s $345, and 2 or more costs $195 per person. If you are interested in learning more or just need to brush up your avalanche safety, they also offers a variety of AIARE courses.
Mountaineering | Mountaineering is one of the most rewarding activities you can do, using your technical rock and snow skills, route finding, and outdoor savvy to summit a peak! Crested Butte Mountain Guides will help you bag that 14er, or some famed local summits. These all inclusive ski and non-ski climbing trips are available during the winter and spring.
Dogsled In The Colorado Backcountry | There isn’t much more of a wilderness experience than being pulled by a team of dogs through the snow filled Rocky Mountains. Gunnison County has miles of unmaintained winter roads that are perfect for dog sledding. Consider taking a rest day off from skiing to explore the mountains from the comfort of a sled pulled by a team of rambunctious, fiercely beautiful sled dogs. Our local sled dog outfitters will say there is no age limit on who can go dog sledding, but leave it up to parents’ discretion.
Fatbiking | In the past few years, fat-tire bicycles have taken the snow-sports world by storm. These special bikes have extra-wide, low-pressure tires, allowing the rider to float over snow and ice. Although fat biking is a relatively new sport in the outdoor industry, it hasn’t taken long for those of us in Gunnison and Crested Butte to pick it up. You might say it’s in our blood to ride bikes, and if we can find a way to ride year-round, you bet we’re going to do it. Every January, Crested Butte hosts Fat Bike Worlds. It’s a heck of a party with a little fat bike racing thrown in the mix.
Ice Skate & Hockey | Ice skating is one of those fun and festive winter-time activities that you can really enjoy in Crested Butte. There are a few options in the area to get your fix with outdoor rinks. And if you’re an ice hockey fan, be sure to check out the town league for regularly scheduled games.
Music | Winters in Crested Butte are cold and snowy, which gives you the perfect excuse to get down to some warm and groovy tunes. Music venues and events will serve up a variety of musical performers showcasing rock, jazz, blues, funk, bluegrass, swing, and more!
Nordic & Cross Country Ski | Crested Butte may be known for its steep and extreme terrain on the mountain, but if you are looking for a nordic/cross country experience the Nordic Ski Capital of Colorado is at your doorstep. Between the beautiful groomed tracks and valley drainages, there are no shortage of landscapes for you to explore.
Skiing & Snowboarding | If you enjoy waiting in endless lift lines, sitting in traffic for a few hours, and views of bright red tail lights on I-70, better head elsewhere. If not, you’re going to love our mountain. Crested Butte receives an average of 300 inches of snow per year, mostly in the form of champagne powder. There is terrain for every skill level to enjoy along with unparalleled inbound extreme terrain for the advanced skiers.
Snowmobiling Adventures | With many roads and passes closed for the winter, snowmobiling represents a fast and fun way to get into the backcountry. There’s an extensive trail system along with local rental companies providing both guided and unguided rentals. Guided tours start at $89 per person and range from a few hours to all day with meals provided.
Snowshoeing | For those who love hiking, snowshoeing is your winter counterpart. From groomed trails to pristine backcountry wilderness, snowshoeing gives you all-access exploration of surrounding areas in Crested Butte. If you choose to use the Crested Butte Nordic Center groomed track or need rental equipment, be sure to purchase a day pass or reserve snowshoes in advance on their website.
Regarding Lift Tickets and Ski School | I would highly recommend to purchase a ski pass if you have not done so far. Please make sure you have a look at skicb.com in order to make your reservations in time to avoid missing-out a day or waiting. The Ski School phone number is 970-251-7023. *Please check the website at skicb.com for most up-to-date seasonal information on lift tickets and ski school.*
Regarding Ski & Snowboard Rentals
The entire Gunnison Valley is full of fantastic outdoor gear shops. Many of them feature both biking and skiing equipment and make the swap seasonally like most residents. Regardless of their focus, you can expect to find knowledgeable, friendly locals working at shops throughout the valley who are stoked to get you fitted with the right gear for an outstanding experience. From beginner gear to the high-end performance demos, most shops provide equipment for visitors of all skill levels. If you ski at home and are visiting to experience the different terrain and snow, we recommend packing your boots and helmet and renting some powder skis when you’re here. A few of our shops also offer rental backcountry gear. If you’re looking to explore the Crested Butte backcountry, you can get all the equipment you need at a few shops. Just be sure to study up on the avalanche report and make informed choices about where you go.
