Magic Meadows Yurt Dinner
The Magic Meadows Yurt is a back-country yurt located on Crested Butte Land Trust property in the Slate River Valley. The yurt can comfortably seat 40 people. It is heated by a wood stove and lit by solar powered lights. The yurt can only be accessed with skis or snowshoes via a 1-mile groomed trail from the Peanut Lake Trailhead. The trail is mostly level, with a few rolling hills, taking about 30-45 minutes for beginner skiers and 15-20 minutes for skiers with a bit of experience. Yurt dinners include guides that will show you the way to the yurt if you desire. Once in the warmth of the yurt, your guides will become your servers and offer you specialty cocktails from Crested Butte's Montanya Distillery, wine selections, specialty non-alcoholic drinks, and beer from Elevation Beer Company. Live music performed by local musicians accompanies the 5-course meal which is prepared by Chef Tim Egelhoff.
Please note: 2024 season dates are sold out. 2025 dates will be available to schedule beginning August 1st, 2024. Best to book early as this unique dinner experience is popular and sells out in advance.
