About this trip

Bergen Catholic will ski the Mountains of Colorado at the famous mountain of Crested Butte...The mountain boasts over 200 inches of snow each season and has terrain to suit all levels.  We will stay at the foot of the mountain within a short walk (100 yds) to the Silver Queen Express Lift.



Lodging at the Plaza Condominium

Groups and families love the Plaza for its convenient location just 100 yards from the ski area's main lift, the Silver Queen. In one short walk, guests can hit the slopes or take in the action at the base area of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. The Plaza is also unique for its condominium setting with hotel style services. Spacious two- and three- bedroom suites include everything you need to be independent, while on-site check-in, a restaurant and bar, covered parking and two hot tubs provide all the benefits of a hotel.


Each Condo unit has a full kitchen and washer and dryer.
