We've settled in for a week here in Telluride. Monday was our first day on the slopes so we took it easy while we acclimate to the thin air. The scenery here is something special, and my little camera can't capture the amazing panoramas.
They are having a low snow year, but luckily they got ten inches over the weekend, so we should be good for the week. Most of the trails are packed powder/loose powder, with some fresh along the trail edges.
A few pics from Monday:
We skied a half day on Monday, mostly off the Sunshine express which has some great long beginner terrain that was ideal for my wife. We also did a few runs in the Prospect Bowl.
Here's some terrain on the other side we might try today.
This is from the Prospect bowl looking back towards the big chutes. I don't think I'll be trying those on this trip...
We went out to a nice ranch and did some horseback riding in the afternoon with a famous cowboy here named Roudy. He's got a million stories to tell. Great scenery and very relaxing.
