The spring season is here, and with it we leave winter behind us. Telluride is one of the best ski destinations in the state of Colorado, so leaving winter behind can be hard for some who love winter sports. This spring, you can enjoy the end of the ski season with a few final runs down the slopes here in Telluride. Check out all the details you need to know about getting in some last-minute skiing in Telluride before the season ends:
Telluride Ski Resort
If you are looking for the best slopes, you simply cannot go wrong at Telluride Ski Resort. This is the namesake ski resort for the town where you can find all kinds of snow fun. All you have to do is look up and see the snow-covered trees out in the wilderness surrounding Telluride that will provide you with an idea of what to expect. Telluride Ski Resort continues to operate as planned for the season with weather permitting. The first step to securing your time on the slopes is by purchasing a ski lift pass that will provide you with the ability to traverse the slopes. Single-day passes are available perfect for last-minute skiing as opposed to purchasing season-long passes. Lift passes can be purchased in advance or at the resort; purchasing in advance is the best way to secure a spot in case an unexpectedly busy day occurs at the resort. Once you have your ticket, you are ready to jump on the lifts.
The Slopes
Telluride Ski Resort is surrounded by the San Juan Mountains that offer stunning sights throughout the year. You will be able to access all areas of the mountain through your lift pass that includes rides up to Revelation Bowl, Palmyra Peak, Black Iron Bowl, and many others. Telluride Ski Resort is home to trails of varying difficulty as well. You will find everything from beginner level green trails and intermediate blue trails to advanced black diamond slopes. The trails are clearly marked so you can make sure to pick the right trail for your skill level. The terrain bowls are a great place for experienced skiers and snowboarders to further test their skills. There are dozens of ski trails to explore, making your last-minute ski experience one that can be different from visit to visit.
