Crested Butte is known for having some of the best trails in the country. Runners will be challenged by this high altitude course. Its wide open views will amaze runners as they traverse through the Gunnison National Forest. At the lower elevations, stunning wildflowers set against mountain backdrops will greet runners as they work their way up the course. Fall foliage rivaling New England will distract them from the heart pumping climbs. Come enjoy a weekend getaway!
