Hi All and Happy Friday! Short work week or not, are we ready for a couple of days off, or what? The snow report is showing three inches of new whiteness in the last 24 hours and while it’s a little brisk on the valley floor this morning, we’re forecasted to warm into the upper twenties by this afternoon. It’s Prater Cup weekend at Crested Butte Mountain Resort, so the Westwall lift and adjacent runs will be seeing lots of junior racing action over the next few days. Stop on by and check out the scene—it should be cool.
Today’s first shot is what yesterday’s post promised, but didn’t quite deliver . . . a look downElk Avenueon Thursday morning. While the snow showers abated early in the day, Thursday’s skies stayed cloudy and temps dropped throughout the afternoon.

Here’s the fourteen-thousand-foot-tallCastle Peak, towering above the West Elks, off to the east of the ski area.
We’ll wrap up today’s post with clouds coming off thepeakofWhetstoneMountain in the morning light.
There are only seven weekends left in the ski season at Crested Butte, so it’s time to get out on the mountain and ski it up! See you out there!
