Telluride boasts European-style skiing, far above the tree line with a natural open bowl in an unbelievably beautiful setting.
Rated one of North America’s top ten ski areas by both SKI and SKIING magazines, Telluride Ski Resort is internationally renowned. The addition of Revelation Bowl in 2008-09 pushed Telluride’s terrain to more than 2,000 skiable acres. The region receives more than 300 inches of snow each year from quick-clearing storms, but still averages 300 days of sunshine annually. Terrain encompasses above-tree lined bowls, freestyle terrain parks, challenging moguls and stress-free groomers. Expect 23 percent beginner, 36 percent intermediate
and 41 percent advanced/expert. Longtime favorite ski runs include The Plunge for experts, See Forever
for intermediates; and the 4.6 mile Galloping Goose for beginners.
