History Ski Tour & Lunch at the Magic Meadows Yurt
March 20 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
$40 – $50
Join the Museum for a delicious lunch with a side of history at the Magic Meadows Yurt. This is a ticketed event that includes a light lunch for all participants. We will meet at the trailhead for a guided group tour out to the Yurt for a delicious lunch and enjoyable history talk. During our ski out to the Yurt, we will make multiple stops in historically significant locations and learn about the mines of the area. A nordic pass and gear will be required for this event. If you require an equipment rental, we suggest setting one up ahead of time with the Crested Butte Nordic Center as rentals do sell out ahead of time.
