Stroll down Elk Avenue, the main thoroughfare, and you're likely to spot residents cycling by, toting skis on their shoulders, and moms pulling toddlers in sleds on snow-packed sidewalks. No chain stores or overabundance of T-shirt shops mar the town's singular appeal. The Butte, as many refer to it, offers a combination of laidback lifestyle, abundant ski terrain at both resort and backcountry, and rugged beauty that perennially attracts some of Colorado's most soulful ski bums."
