The backcountry skiing in Crested Butte is fantastic. When it has only snowed an inch or so at the resort, you can count on the backcountry to have a foot or more. Much of the backcountry is best accessed by sleds via dirt roads that are snow-covered during the winter. I can’t wait to explore this area more, as it is full of fantastic and challenging lines.
Below are some pics and links to trip reports of CB backcountry fun!
