Uley's Cabin and Ice Bar sits on the slopes of Crested Butte Mountain Resort, accessible by ski or snowboard during the day and by snowcat-driven sleigh in the evening. The cabin takes its name from Uley Scheer, a local historical figure known as a moonshiner, trapper, and jailhouse cook — a heritage that lends the space its distinct character. Inside, the dining room offers an upscale Colorado-inspired lunch experience with dishes like grilled pheasant breast, bison tri-tip steak frites, and wild game stroganoff. Outdoors, a more casual deck hosts creative American-style grilled favorites alongside lawn games and open mountain views. The adjacent Ice Bar, carved slope-side, serves handcrafted cocktails with a backdrop of ski runs and mountain peaks. The venue is open for lunch Wednesday through Sunday, with select additional days throughout the winter season. Its combination of rustic cabin warmth, gourmet mountain cuisine, and one-of-a-kind ice bar makes it a standout setting for private gatherings and celebrations on the mountain.
