It always feels great when Kebler Pass opens for the summer. We are now able to get to Hwy 133, Carbondale, Aspen and Glenwood Springs much more easily. But it also somehow feels less claustrophobic knowing there are now 2 egresses from Crested Butte. Just in case. But, Cottonwood Pass will be closed for the next 2 summers (2017 and 2018) so Monarch is the only option in that direction.
