Creekin in Crested Butte

Now that it has finally stopped snowing in Crested Butte (atleast for the moment), it's a good time to head out there to enjoy the sunshine, mosquitos, and classic CB creeks you can now hike to without trudging through snow up to your knees.

Here are some pics from our last trip.

Good times were had by all, but if you are looking to save money by not spending absurd amounts of your paycheck on overpriced gas here are a couple of words of wisdom:
-Don't try driving to the Punchbowls in a 2-wheel drive sedan... you're not going to make it... not even to the Double Drop..don't try
-The big piece of wood in the Middle Fork of the Ruby the guide book warns about IS still there.. and a couple more (to say the least) have accompanied it..it doesn't run
