Books & Guidebooks


mountain biking crested butte It's always great to wake up in CB and know you're going on a delicious hike, or a killer mountain bike ride. I've put together a list of great books and guidebooks about CB that you can buy on Amazon to guide your adventures.  Come prepared! The local bookstores aren't always stocked!
The list is on the sidebar of many of the pages of my site - on the calendar pages, the season and activity pages... come prepared as boy scouts say!
