The Crystal Mill Jeep Adventure

Heading to Crystal

Heading to Crystal

Almost weekly we have customers travel to the famous Crystal Mill from Crested Butte.  Providing our customers with maps and local information allows us to safely access the Mill from the Western side.  Starting with a nice scenic tour to the town of Marble, the fun quickly bumps up right outside of Town.  For this rocky and tight Jeep trail follows the Crystal Creek up to the Mill and Ghost Town.  Visitors enjoy this famous landmark, which is ranked as one of the most photographed landscape in all of Colorado.  In this photo you can see it was a muddy day, but as usually our Jeeps are well equipped to handle the trail which additional clearance is needed to safely navigate.  After stretching the legs and walking around Town, most people head back down to the Town of Marble for some of the best BBQ in Colorado.  Slow Grooving BBQ is one of my favorite restaurants in Western Colorado.  On the way back to CB, it is advised to drive slow on Kebler Pass as the wildlife are very active this time of evening, making for an opportunity to see a variety of wildlife before entering back into Crested Butte.
