They are running the free ski promo this year again. Free lift tickets until some date in November. Call them. Crested Butte is cool and I have done lots of work out there. It is remote. The locals will be restless if the tourism biz ever slows down. [/ QUOTE ] The biggest problem with CB is that it's about 80% dudes. You will almost never see a single woman out at a bar and if you do, she is surrounded by 8 [censored] with beards. Other than that, it rules. |

Re: Coolest mountain towns
There is always the Asheville, NC area. Yeah Asheville itself doesn't fit your criteria but the surrounding area is tremendous. I went to school at the nearby Mars Hill College, and the surrounding towns are great places to visit. From Weaverville to Burnsville.
Eh, just throwing it out there. |

Lack of a snobby vibe, lack of urban sprawl and ordinances against chain stores are mutually exclusive from both laid back vibe and towns with real character. [/ QUOTE ] lack of a snobby vibe is also mutually exclusive of ordinances against chain stores. |

Re: Coolest mountain towns
damn you guys are making me want to move to a mountain town, but I would probably get beat up by the locals for not skiing, biking, or having a beard

Re: Coolest mountain towns
Im not sure that any of those are "required"....I can think of a few artists/writers that live there solely for the beauty. However if youve never tried skiing or riding you are def missing out.
