We received great news from the Center of the Arts in Crested Butte that the annual Monday evening Alpenglow concert series is back on for 2020.  Last year with the pandemic raging it was no surprise that the center had to cancel the typically annual free event.  Now, a year later, they have announced that the concert series will begin on June 28^th with my favorite local band, Gun Rack.  Followed by Brothers of Brass on July 5^th, Lizzy Plotkin & Natalie Spears / Storm Pass on the 12^th, Easy Jim on the 19^th and my second favorite local band MILLK on the 26^th.

So if you like free outdoor music and visiting some of the most beautiful landscapes in North America, come visit us in Crested Butte or Gunnison and rent a specialized Jeep.  As we are your ride to the high country!

For years now we have been providing delivery services to the FBO at the Gunnison / Crested Butte (GUC) Airport.  If you are flying in privately, we can drive our Jeeps right up to your planes side.  Allowing for easy loading or passengers and gear.  All for a small one-time fee of $25 per rental.  Gives us your tail number and we’ll see you on the tarmac.

Here is the new member to our fleet, Pam.  She’s a 2014 Jeep Wrangler 2 Door in a soft top configuration with a full suspension lift on Bilstein shocks and 34″ BF Goodrich A/T tires, which makes for a solid yet comfy ride.  Call us today to set up a time to take her for a ride in the high country!

This Is Glenda B., we had a terrific time today in Black Betty.  Thank you for having such a great company where we can see parts of Crested Butte we wouldn’t have been able to see!
The waterfalls are what we were looking for.  We walked about 200 yards from the big yellow signs.  We really enjoyed cement creek.
Thanks again for a fabulous day!

Just arrived this week is our newest member of our family, a blue 2015 four door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited in a soft top configuration.  Babe the Ox, as she is knows by has a 4” full suspension lift with 35” premium off-road tires.  When booking ask for her by name and receive our most capable recreational vehicle.

Yesterday was a turning of the pages for our seasons.  Our last leaf peeping customers went out, with good timing as the snow has begun to fly consistently up in the higher elevations.  Historically the Elk around the Town of Crested Butte move to the valley floor, seeking safety and a good breading ground.  As you can see in the photos, this year the herd is looking very healthy.

This quick rest-bit allows us to get caught up and prepped for our hunters.  Our Jeeps have been a great resource for hunters flying into Gunnison (GUC) with our location literally across the street.  Our 4 door Jeeps also allows plenty of room for gear and even using it as a tent or shelter to sleep in.  We also offer an accessory which increases storage outside via the trailer hitch.  Contact us direct with any questions you may have or to make a reservation.

Fall is an amazingly beautiful time of year, as this stylized photo taken last year clearly shows.  Every year I receive many phone calls this time of year asking about the Fall foliage and my prediction to when it will peak.  This year, starting as soon as May the weather patterns were obviously ahead of what we consider a normal schedule.  Due to the lack of snowpack, melting was in a rush and sped up the process of everything in the Valley.  Which creates good and bad, trails opened up sooner but the wildflowers came and went much faster than normal.  River flows have been the talk of the town.  Fortunately hunting does not seem to be effected, which is great for all our hunter clients.  However the cooler temps, especially in the night time and added moisture has sped up the schedule of the turning of the leaves.  Normally the Aspen’s seem to climax or peak around September 25-27^th and for this year I am predicting it will be closer to the 20^th.  With that said, I am no climatologist but it is very obvious that global warming is happening and affecting our weather patterns.
