• A GREEN CIRCLE, BLUE SQUARE, OR BLACK DIAMOND TRAIL at Crested Butte
Mountain Resort IS NOT NECESSARILY THE SAME AS A SIMILARLY RATED
TRAIL AT ANOTHER SKI AREA. Please work your way up, beginning with the
easiest trails no matter what your ability level may be, until you are familiar with
the trails.
• The posted degree of difficulty of a run is determined by the surrounding
terrain and runs on this mountain only.
• All poles and/or flags, fencing, signage and padding on equipment or objects
or other forms of marking devices are used by the ski area to inform you of
the presence or location of a potential obstacle or hazard. These markers are no
guarantee of your safety and will not protect you from injury. It is part of your
responsibility under Your Responsibility Code to avoid all obstacles or hazards,
including those that are so marked.
For everyone’s safety, CBMR has a “No Drone” policy.

With the use of your Crested Butte Lift Ticket, you agree to
assume all risks of injury, damage or loss as stated in the policy
below. Any violation of the Colorado Ski Safety Act or the Skier
Responsibility Code can result in the loss of your lift ticket.
COLORADO SKI SAFETY ACT Under Colorado Law, any person
using any of the facilities of the ski area is considered a skier.
Colorado has amended its Ski Safety Act to include a section on inherent risks and dangers in
the sport. The Colorado legislature declared as one of the purposes for the law, “To establish as
a matter of law that certain dangers and risks are inherent in that sport, and to provide that, as
a matter of public policy, no person engaged in that sport shall recover from a ski area operator
for injuries resulting from those inherent dangers and risks.”CRS §33-44-107. Duties of ski
area operators (8) (c.) WARNING Under Colorado law, a skier assumes the risk of any injury to
person or property resulting from any of the inherent dangers and risks of skiing and may not
recover from any ski area operator for any injury resulting from any of the inherent dangers and
risks of skiing, including: Changing weather conditions; existing and changing snow conditions;
bare spots; rocks; stumps; trees; collisions with natural objects, man-made objects, or other
skiers; variations in terrain; and the failure of skiers to ski within their own abilities.
CRS §33-44-109. Duties of skiers (1) Each skier solely has the responsibility for knowing the
range of his own ability to negotiate any ski slope or trail and to ski within the limits of such
ability. Each skier expressly accepts and assumes the risk of and all legal responsibility for any
injury to person or property resulting from any of the inherent dangers and risks of skiing.
(2) Each skier has the duty to maintain control of his speed and course at all times when skiing
and to maintain a proper lookout so as to be able to avoid other skiers and objects. However,
the primary duty shall be on the person skiing downhill to avoid collision with any person or
objects below him. (3) No skier shall ski on a ski slope or trail that has been posted as “Closed”.
(10) No skier involved in a collision with another skier or person in which an injury results
shall leave the vicinity of the collision before giving his or her name and current address to
an employee of the ski area operator or a member of the ski patrol. The Ski Safety Act was
amended in 2004 to include cliffs, extreme terrain, trees, jumps and freestyle terrain as
inherent dangers and risks of the sport.

WARNING: RISK OF AVALANCHE
While snow safety and avalanche mitigation efforts help reduce the risk, avalanches and snow
slides may occur at ski ares, both in and outside of the posted boundaries. Avalanches are an
inherent risk of the sport due to the nature of snow and its application on steep terrain. Become
educated on how to reduce the risk of injury or death through your own actions and awareness.
Visit avalanche.org or contact the Ski Patrol.
THE EXTREME LIMITS
Unique to
Crested Butte, this kind of skiing is the perfect
way to enhance your powder technique. The
Extreme Limits are not for everyone. This is
true double-black diamond terrain as serious
and demanding as you’ll find in-bounds at any
ski area in North America. While this area is
avalanche controlled, it is ungroomed. Watch
for rocks, trees and other natural hazards and
be responsible. May be closed at any time
due to avalanche hazard, snowpack stability
considerations or other adverse conditions.
BACKCOUNTRY WARNING: The ski area assumes no responsibility for skiers or riders going
beyond the ski area boundary. Areas beyond the ski area boundary are not patrolled or
maintained. Avalanches, unmarked obstacles and other natural hazards exist. Rescue in the
TEOCALLI BOWL
backcountry, if available, will be costly and may take time.
NOTE: 10-15 minute hike out of the bottom
to return to the Paradise Bowl area.

HELMETS ARE A SMART IDEA
Crested Butte Mountain Resort
encourages you to educate yourself on the benefits and limitations of helmets.
If you choose to wear one, please ski or ride as if you are not wearing one.
Every winter sport participant shares responsibility for his or her safety and
for that of others using the ski area facilities. Helmets are available for rent at
Crested Butte Ski & Snowboard Rental.
