Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport (GUC)

Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport , also known as Gunnison County Airport, is a public airport located at the southern edge of Gunnison, Colorado. Operated by Gunnison County, it serves the valley and nearby Crested Butte, Colorado with both commercial airline and general aviation flights. The airport is seasonal, in that many flights from GUC only operate during the winter. Travel through Gunnison is mainly by vacationers going skiing during winter in Crested Butte. There is a small one-building terminal with only two jetbridge gates, and one baggage carrousel located in the lower lobby. There is one restaurant and gift shop located on the second floor. The airport sees limited regional jet service during summer, however has larger 737 and 757 service during winter. It is located at (38.5339444, -106.9330278), at an elevation of 7678 feet or 2340 meters above mean sea level. U.S. 50 runs along the northwest side of the airport, which is located immediately south of downtown. Its close location is due in part to redevelopment of land formerly occupied by the Denver & Rio Grande narrow gauge railroad and rail yards. The line was abandoned in 1953.
