We Ride for Asher

Fifteen years ago, our founder, Stephanie Allen, experienced the tragic loss of her son Asher during a skiing accident while he was training for a competition. At just 17 years old, Asher was a talented freeride skier and a beloved member of the Crested Butte community.

Today, his memory lives on through heartfelt traditions across town—from Asher stickers on ski gear, to the “Asher Pizza” at Secret Stash. A bench dedicated to him sits inside our main shop as a quiet space to reflect and remember. We’re proud to honor his legacy on the mountain he loved so deeply.

Meet Our Owner

Stephanie Allen—affectionately known by many names—is the driving force behind Butte & Co. She arrived in Crested Butte more than 30 years ago with little more than a pair of skis, an old Chevy, and her cat, and through dedication, resilience, and an unwavering love for the mountains, she built a business that has become a cornerstone of the local ski community.

Today, Stephanie leads with the same passion and purpose that brought her here. She continues to welcome guests with open arms, creating a warm, supportive environment for both staff and customers alike. Her commitment to service, family, and faith is woven into every aspect of our company.
