Crested Butte is one of Colorado's many terrific places to ski. A little harder to get to than the better known names, Crested Butte rewards its guests with uncrowded slopes, great runs at all levels, and a quaint former mining town with shops and restaurants. Read more about Crested Butte for families.

For the holiday season, special events include a Light Up Night & Holiday Parade, torchlight parades and fireworks on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, a moonlight snowshoe tour, dinners in a yurt...
