Crested Butte Wildflower Festival
Ten days of guided hikes, photography workshops, and botanical drawing classes in the official wildflower capital of Colorado. Time it right and the meadows above town look unreal.

Fall equinox
Vinotok
A pagan harvest festival staged by Crested Butte's resident artists, complete with a Green Man, a Harvest Mother, and the burning of a grumpy effigy in the town park. Genuinely strange and genuinely beloved.
