Celebrate the Holidays in Downtown Crested Butte & Mt. Crested Butte

December 15, 2012 By Chris Kopf

Decoration Stock photoChristmas and the Holidays are a great time to be in the Crested Butte area this year.  With lots of new snow and more in the forecast it should be a wonderful White Christmas in Crested Butte this year.  The holidays are a special time for sure, and the opportunity to be with family and friends in Crested Butte and create lasting memories is what life is all about.  In addition to downhill Alpine skiing there are an endless list of ways to Celebrate the Holidays in Downtown Crested Butte & Mt. Crested Butte. Below is a  list of activities and events to partake in during the holiday season, below are some of my ideas, some businesses that have special offers: Tonight – December 15th there is a parade down Elk Avenue and Tree lighting  – Join Santa Claus, Bubba and Betty Bear for Light Up the Night tonight beginning at 5:30 p.m. at the Crested Butte Visitor’s Center (corner of 6th Street and Elk Avenue). The UCC Choir will be caroling their way up Elk Avenue to the Christmas Tree in front of Brick Oven (between 2nd & 3rd Street on Elk Avenue). Santa will use his magic dust to light up the Town’s Christmas Tree. Santa will then lead the children and others up to the West End Public House to use his magic once more to light up the tree on the corner of Elk Avenue and 2nd Street. The Public is invited into the Public House to decorate cookies, hot chocolate, and holiday cheer while listening to the music of Tyler Hansen. Whether you are a first time visitor, a second-homeowner, or a local – below are some Fun Activities for a great Crested Butte Christmas / Holiday and New Years for your consideration – Christmas Tree — Help thin out the aspen groves of invading pines, and go cut down a Christmas Tree –  Get a permit from the Forest Service see the Crested Butte / Mt. Crested Butte Chamber of Commerce at the 4-Way (Elk Avenue & Sixth Street) for a permit or you can stop by the Forest Service Office in Gunnison. – Rent ice skates at the Nordic Center and go skate at the ice rink in downtown Crested Butte – Sled in town by the Nordic Center, or find an open hillside and have some family fun – Snowshoe up Gothic Mountain  – the Mountain Express Bus provides service to the Gothic trailhead via the condo bus – Rent Alpine Touring gear (AT Gear) and skin-up the mountain early in the morning before the lifts open or after 4:30pm – see Alpineer or CBMR rental shops – Have lunch at Uley’s Cabin – a reservation is suggested and is a nice way to take a break from alpine skiing and enjoy some fine dining on the mountain – Go Nordic skiing – the Nordic Center will rent skis and provide a trail map, and lessons for your whole family – Call Glo at the Historical Museum in downtown Crested Butte and schedule a Historic Walking Tour for your group – Call me Chris Kopf – Broker Associate, Coldwell Banker Bighorn Realty to chat about Real Estate here in the Crested Butte area, and maybe go look luxury homes and condos.  My phone is (970) 209-5405 – Go to Camp 4 Coffee in town or on the Mountain in Mountaineer Square and get a special holiday coffee drink Below you will see numerous events on the Holiday calendar – through Christmas and New Years

Chris is outstanding! We recently bought a second home in Crested Butte and Chris did a great job throughout the whole process. He has a thorough understanding of the market and the benefits and drawbacks of various locations. He was very patient with us as our preferences evolved throughout the search. He gave us valuable information on which to negotiate the purchase. He had great follow-up during the inspection/closing process (when we were not in town) and made sure all of the commitments made by the seller were properly completed.
