Osprey Packs Partners with Crested Butte Adventure Guides Program

An introductory program and immersion into exploring Crested Butte’s legendary slopes and learning backcountry skills, the Adventure Guide Program is designed for guests wanting to get out of the norm. The Osprey Switch 26 pack was chosen because of its durability, performance, and features for in-bounds, out-of-bounds, and side-country skiing and riding.

“I couldn’t be more excited to partner with such a fantastic company for the people, product, and the commonalities Osprey shares with Crested Butte,” says Todd Walton, Communications Director for Crested Butte Mountain Resort. “Not to mention, the Switch 26 is ideal for this program that helps guests wanting to explore a little more than a usual day here in Crested Butte really have a great experience.”

Gareth Martins, Osprey’s Director of Marketing adds, “Osprey relishes the opportunity to have our product put to the task in demanding situations. Crested Butte is a legendary mountain and we’re happy to be part of the adventures there this year.”

Crested Butte has been named as Skiing Magazine’s #1 Best Steeps, #8 Best Trees, #10 Best Powder, and Outside Magazine’s Top Places To Live Now, Sunset Magazine’s # 3 Top Dream Towns, SKI Magazine’s #20 Readers Survey Top Resort, and SkiNet’s # 3 Top Ski Town.
