2024 Crested Butte IFSA FWT Challenger

Crested Butte has long been renowned as a top-class adventure destination, so it is only fitting that freeride athletes will make their way there this year. The resort has over 500 acres of double-black diamond terrain – as well as ‘Rambo’, considered the steepest lift-serviced tree run in North America – meaning it is a genuine mountain for expert skiers and thrill seekers. With the main peak rising up over 3,600 meters, cold storms pile up the snow in winter, ensuring a decent snow base into the spring months.
