The Western Slope towns of Gunnison and Crested Butte are defined
by their placement in the Colorado Rockies. Both are located in
alpine valleys surrounded by 14,000-foot-high peaks with sparkling
mountain-fed streams, and both dominate the Gunnison country, a
unique wilderness covering over 4,000 square miles. Beginning over
400 years ago, Native Americans, fur traders, explorers, miners,
railroaders, and cattlemen all made a place for themselves in the
area. Today Gunnison, Crested Butte, and the Gunnison country
remain isolated and tranquil. Recreation, tourism, and cattle
ranching now reign supreme as Gunnison and Crested Butte attempt to
preserve their distinctly Western heritage.
