Designated the “Wildflower Capital of Colorado” by the Colorado State Legislature in 1990, the 1880s mountain town of Crested Butte will host the 24th annual Wildflower Festival July 12 – 18, 2010.
Visitors, photographers and artists, from across the United States and abroad, journey to Crested Butte to witness nature’s explosion of color during the festival and the weeks surrounding. Glacier lilies are among the first to appear in May, literally forcing their way through remaining layers of snow. By mid-July and well into the month of August, the entire area is painted with floral displays.
Crested Butte Wildflower Festival spans the peak of wildflower season and is dedicated to the conservation, preservation and appreciation of wildflowers through education and celebration.
