The newest release for The Business of Extraordinary Living, the micro-site on WSJ.com, is available now by clicking here.
In this latest issue articles include:
One of the most exciting things in this issue is the Lifestyle Comparison – Mountain on the Insights tab. It compares a great property listed by Cathy Benson and Karen Redden on 757 Ridge Road, Crested Butte to a home in Sandpoint, Idaho. Of course we believe that there is no comparison that 757 Ridge Road is an excellent property with views that literally go on for miles and miles.
As a matter of fact 757 Ridge Road is such a great property that it just recently went under contract and is slated to close next month.
Click here for more information about 757 Ridge Road.

Snowing in Crested Butte
It is dumping in Crested Butte, with more on the way. We could easily end up with over 2 feet of snow by Sunday, so now is the BEST time to get out here to Crested Butte and get some skiing in. This weekend on the mountain, it will be near impossible not to find powder stashes everywhere you turn.
If you are thinking you could get used to this kind of lifestyle why not check out the premier ski in/ski out home in the valley, that is 105 Bear Scratch. Not only is this home located on the slopes, but it also has an indoor swimming pool and an indoor putting green. Check out more photos and details at 105BearScratch.com.
