Top Skiing in Colorado

I think you should take advantage of the free shuttle service around town. It makes getting to different slopes so much easier, and I didn't realize it was available until halfway through my trip. Don't miss it!

I suggest you rent your gear in advance online. You can save quite a bit of cash this way, plus you won't waste time standing in long lines at the rental shops. It was a game-changer for us.

Check the weather before you go! We got caught in a snowstorm that came out of nowhere one day, and it messed up our plans. I think planning around the weather forecast would make for way better skiing days!

You gotta try night skiing! It's an awesome experience, especially if you go around 5 PM, but be prepared for colder temps up there, so dress warm!

My advice is to keep an eye on the weather. It can change quickly! I wore the wrong gear one day and it really put a damper on my fun.

I recommend hitting the slopes by 8:30 AM to avoid the crowds. The first run of the day is always the best and the lines are so much shorter!

I suggest downloading the Telluride app for live updates on lifts and conditions. It saved me a lot of time wandering around trying to figure out where to go next.

Grab lunch at one of the spots in town, like The Last Dollar Saloon. It’s cheaper than on-mountain dining and you'll get more local flavor!
