Mount Crested Butte, Colorado, USA

Mount Crested Butte's 3,709-metre-high snow-covered peak glimmers in the dark in today's homepage image. The prominent summit is in the Elk Mountains in western Colorado in the United States, perched over the quaint 1880s mining town of Crested Butte. Known as Colorado’s last great ski town, this is a place where skiers and snowboarders come to access Crested Butte Mountain Resort’s terrain. Visitors can also take part in Nordic skiing, snowmobiling and snowshoeing.

Mount Crested Butte is also a popular summer destination for keen mountain bikers – there’s more than a thousand kilometres of mountain biking trails that wind through wildflower-filled meadows. In fact, Mount Crested Butte is also known as the wildflower capital of Colorado. For something a little more laid back, there’s hiking in alpine and aspen forests, fishing in pristine rivers, lakes and streams, and water sports on Colorado’s largest lake, the Blue Mesa, part of Curecanti National Recreation Area. And if that’s not enough excitement, you can also experience the Adventure Centre's miniature golf, climbing wall and bungee jumping.
