Have
you ever flown to Montrose? I've done it in summer and winter. It's a 2
hour drive to Gunnison along a fairly strait and easy road that skirts
Blue Mesa lake. It is not mountain, scary cliff-hanging driving, but an
easy lovely drive. So this is a great option to come to CB from Arizona
and California!| The luxurious Ski in and Out Bienasz Home! |
Mountain Store Citizens Race Series
Race venues are subject to weather and conditions. Venues will be posted at the Nordic Center the week of each race.
Take a historical journey through the winter wonderlands of Gunnison
Valley with renowned historian, Duane Vandenbusche. Our journey begins
over a hearty breakfast at the Almont Lodge where participants explore
Almont’s beginnings. Next, participants travel to the town of Crested
Butte – a small community of winter enthusiasts whose character and
history is as deep as the snow pack on Mount Crested Butte. Guided by
Duane’s narratives, participants visit the Crested Butte Heritage museum
as well as the JC Leacock gallery. Our journey leads us up the mountain
to Mountaineer Square for a sack lunch and a discussion where
participants catch a rare glimpse into the history of the ski area.
After the discussion, participants can join Duane for Part 2 of our
journey or elect to explore the ski area and the town of Mount Crested
Butte before returning home.
