Crested Butte


We drove to the little town of Crested Butte this week, and did a little exploring and fall color viewing. 


The town is nestled in the shadow of Mt Crested Butte, 


A photo from our delightful Monday scenic Colorado drive through Kenosha Pass…

Spectacular view from Cottonwood Pass. 


We tried a shortcut that put us on a rutted dirt road for a dozen or so miles. Not expected, but also not too bad. 


Saw some more colorful flora and some striking mountain peaks. 


Finished our Monday with a short walk to Secret Stash Pizza for a pesto pizza for dinner, and a great sunset.


Cool 35° Tuesday morning walk in Crested Butte

Tuesday afternoon drive over Kebler Pass to Paonia, for some great views and a delicious late lunch at Rio Brava.


Wednesday afternoon hike on Mt Crested Butte — we got some exercise, checked out the ski area, and saw lots of the Colorado Fall color!
