I had never skied in Colorado before (or anywhere in the Rockies, for that matter), so when Jeff and Chris of our ice climbing contingent announced that they were going to Telluride for a day, I couldn't resist the temptation to check it out.
The slopes were almost empty and the lift lines nonexistent at this resort that boasts a lift up to 12,600'. It hadn't snowed in a week, and apparently this had scared off the spoiled Coloradans. Or maybe people were reluctant to fork over $92 for a day of mediocre skiing. We lucked out on both counts, as we got vouchers for ~$40 off lift tickets and it started to snow _hard_ midway through the day. For the first time ever, I actually enjoyed moguls! (OK, just a little bit).
