Coolest mountain towns
I know this forum is fairly well traveled so I was hoping people would have some thoughts.
I'll be moving westward in a couple or years. At the moment Crested Butte, CO is by FAR the coolest town I have ever spent time in and I doubt it can be topped, however its also VERY pricey. Therefor I was hoping to learn about some new towns Ive never been too.
Doesnt have to be Colorado(Im fairly sure that Ive been enough around CO to know there may be nothing like it there....never been to Telluride though), but heres what I like about CB
-Mountain environment
-Laid back atmosphere with real character(town ordinance against franchises is in place)
-Good mountain biking
-Good skiing
-Lack of urban sprawl that is rapidly taking over most mountain towns
-Lack of snobby vibe/designer shops( ie aspen/vail/ etc
-Other than that I cant really describe it, just fell in love with the place.
Anyone been anywhere similar?
Thanks,
Evan
