Did you know there are many events in Crested Butte and Gunnison? See live music, take an art class, volunteer, play trivia, watch (or participate in) a ski or bike race, and more! Check this calendar to see what’s going on.
Nostalgia provides us with a thread of connection ~ a place for our collective memories to overlap ~ and what better place to indulge in the depths of summer than Crested Butte! For our final Tour de Forks dinner we will be settling into the fireside glow of the campfire with indulgent wines from the Kermit Lynch portfolio and big flavors influenced by XIT Ranch and prepared by Chef Abby Knowles. Join us around the campfire to wine, dine and relax as we watch the sunset over the Elk Mountains.
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
