Family Overview: Telluride, Colorado
Telluride is really two towns separated by 800 vertical feet and 109 years. Historic Telluride was founded in 1878 with all of the color and questionable taste of rough-and-tumble mining towns of its era. Mountain Village, founded in 1987, is all about exquisite taste, from luxury lodging to upscale boutiques and spas. The historic town has caught up these days, holding on to its rugged past while embracing newfound elegance. Together, the two offer world-class skiing along with a summer playground that USA Weekend named as one of the "Top 10 Places America Goes to Have Fun." A free gondola connects them, giving visitors the best of both worlds.
