Alley Loop 2013

Posted by: Becca

We headed to Crested Butte this past weekend for the Alley Loop. It's a nordic race that starts downtown, moves out on to their beautiful nordic trails, and then comes back into town where it winds through the alleys. Here is Kyle coming down one of the alleys:

No trip to Crested Butte is complete without a stop at the Secret Stash for pizza.

We discovered another place that we will be going to every time we are in CB. The Dogwood Cafe. We had a vanilla martini, Pyrenees punch, and salted carmel ice cream sandwiches. Amazing!
