Crested Butte is Breath-takingly Butteiful

At over 9000 feet above see level, Crested Butte was definitely taking away our breath. We noticed it just walking around or bending over to pick something up. When we went on bike rides, we were short of breath without putting in much effort.

Not being able to breathe was a small price to pay to visit one of the best places on earth. The views were amazing, the people were relaxed and friendly, the bike trails were spectacular, the air was fresh, the food was surprisingly delicious and varied, and the bike trails were spectacular. Yes, the trails were great enough to mention twice!

We landed at the perfect time. The farmer's market was just beginning and other business were starting to open. However, those pesky tourists hadn't started to arrive yet. Most of the trails were open, although some were still covered in snow. We felt very fortunate and are probably ruined for visiting at any other time (or any other place!).


Welcome!
Even our RV Resort had a special aura
It wasn't a double rainbow, but it was still a beautiful sight after the excitement of a passing thunderstorm
A typical Crested Butte street: lots of green and plenty of bikes
The battle and the scenery was epic
