Work up an appetite as you ski to an unforgettable, gourmet 5-course meal at The Magic Meadows Yurt. The Magic Meadows Yurt is a back-country Yurt located on Crested Butte Land Trust property in the Slate River Valley. The trail to the yurt is about a mile and is mostly level with a few rolling hills, taking about 30 minutes for most skiers.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and dinner is served at 6:30 p.m. Once in the warmth of the Yurt, your guides will become your servers and offer you specialty cocktails from Crested Butte’s Montanya Distillery, wine selections, specialty non-alcoholic drinks, and beer from Elevation Beer Company.  Live music, performed by local musicians accompanies the meal which is prepared by Chef Tim Egelhoff – one of the most highly regarded chefs in Crested Butte today.

The cost includes a trail pass and equipment rental. Please visit the event website for more details regarding the menu, prices, where to meet, and how to make reservations.

Watch as Santa sprinkles the magic dust on top of the Christmas Tree at the annual tree lighting ceremony on the mountain at 5 PM in the courtyard at the Lodge at Mountaineer Square. Bring your little ones to have their photo taken with Santa as they each tell him what they would like for Christmas. Santa will stay after the tree lighting to take photographs and sign autographs.
