    Amazing vid. It doesn't get any better than the part of your run starting at 5:30... wide, groomed, semi-steep and empty with great views. Thanks for letting us stuck in an office on the east coast daydream.

    Hey Andy, thank you for making this among other incredibly inspiring videos. I've been skiing Telluride for 20+ years now but have only been up a few times in the past 10 years. My pals and I are heading back up again this March and this exhilarating video so reminds me of how much I love this place; the skiing, the vibe, the people . . . everything about it. I've done this run so many times but not nearly as fast and agile as you . . . keep up the good work and I'll be watching all of the rest of them.

    The last time I skied in Telluride was in 1987, when I was 24. The lift you rode up and the Gold Hill lift didn't exist yet. You walked up that much narrower cat track, that is now a much wider lane, in hopes of find untracked snow. After you passed the upper gondola building, the run you took to town was a solid bump run. It was weird seeing it groomed. None of the runs to town were groomed. Only the cat tracks and the two runs that went to the base of the village were groom. I've been to Telluride 3 times since, all in the summer. So I know how much it has grown. In spite of those summer trips, it still amazes me how much the ski area has changed since 1987.

    I just wanted you to know Andy, your video was a major part in my decision to go to Telluride. I am a regular at Vail, but wanted to try something new. I was also bringing some intermediate skiers with me from Atlanta, and wanted them to be able to enjoy some views, too. This run is perfect for double green, to blue skiers, despite the altitude and surrounding double black extreme runs!!
    This video does a great job of showing the beauty of Telluride, but doesn't come close to representing it as a whole! This is the most beautiful place I have ever been- I went for a week, but stayed longer. The one bowl represented in this video, is just that- one bowl. The views throughout the resort are stunning. There are more types of terrain here, and more extreme terrain, than anywhere I have been. Great for all types of skiers.
    I will continue to go back again, and again. Thank you Andy!

Love Telluride and can't wait to be there this Christmas.

    • @Name-ru3di
      @Name-ru3di 9 лет назад

      I lived in both Colorado and Chicago, you have a tough choice, but in the end I would prefer the slopes (that's just me though). It depends on how much you love skiing vs how much you love the Bears and the city life. If your going to Chicago for a game alone I'd say just wait another year. There is always a chance for a dual vacation to for a week (Do both for a few days) but that's an expensive option. In the end how much do you love skiing vs a new experience go to Chicago though if you're not just coming for a game lots to do here.

      I was born and grew up in Colorado,and I lived there for almost 25 years. Colorado is a huge state. And the mountainous parts of it definitely look like this. Colorado is definitely this beautiful--and it's also diverse, meaning that Colorado is not uniform. the San Juan Mountains look very different from, say, North Park. Colorado is very dry, unlike, Washington. It's also very far from the ocean, and the climate sees drastic weather changes from morning to night and from summer to winter.

      Peyton Gordon I would say Henry’s. It’s right off of chair 5. Just go down polar queen ( the ski run) a little then you can do Henry’s. If you are looking for a black run to start off with I would say upper plunge down to lower bushwacker. (There is no video on that) stay off lower plunge, it’s a double black with many moguls! Or you can just do a the full bushwacker run. It’s also pretty easy.
