History

Crested Butte got its start as a mining town in the 1880s. It was once called "the town that wouldn't die" because of its ability to survive the booms and busts of Colorado's mining days. The valley is also home to long-time ranching families that still graze their cattle in local pastures.

Don’t be surprised if you see a cattle drive making its way down the valley’s main highway!
