Crested Butte, CO – The Crested Butte Nordic Council’s annual Progressive Bonfire Dinner is a unique culinary journey that takes participants along a luminary-lit 4K trail for a four-star, four-course, four-fire meal. Snowshoes and Nordic skis are the mode of transportation, and the camaraderie of sitting around crackling fires and dining on good food and warm drinks along the way makes this event on March 19 one truly for the memory books.nBeginning at 5 p.m., diners will be greeted at the first fire at the Town Ranch trailhead located behind Crested Butte Community School with a cup of hot wine or cocoa to sip to enjoy while sitting on straw bales. The next three stops are for the appetizer, soup, entrée, and dessert courses.

Progressive Bonfire Dinner participants not only will feel warm in spirit and full in the belly, they will be supporting the Gunnison/Crested Butte Junior Nordic Ski Team. Reservations are required, with seatings beginning every half hour starting at 5 p.m. and concluding at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets cost $40 for adults and $15 for children. Reservations are required. Call the Crested Butte Nordic Center at (970) 349-1707.
