hey guys my friend and i are riding out at crested butte from the 18th to the 24th. I was wondering anyone one would want to ride with us for a few days cause it would be cool to ride with a local who knew some good spots, also we were thinking of riding monarch 1 day cause its pretty cheap, do u guys think its worth it to ride there or should we just ride CB the whole trip? thanks alot

Monarch is a nice little resort so I think you would have a good time heading over there for a day or so.

So you are in for the best skiing of your life, we just broke a record at Crested Butte for the most snow in 50 years, yesterday was the deepest day of my life.  I could probably show you around, that is the weekend of the comp though, you are going to want to watch that,  Seth Morrison is looking for his first victory after taking 2nd three times, and they are the sickest venues i have ever seen here
