Since we didn't want to stop, our next stop was Telluride. Unfortunately, Telluride was underwhelming. The town was beautiful, it as situated up a canyon with big mountains draping each side of the town. The ski resort was situated above the town, with an expansive village attached. But, there were some lifts that dropped down into town which provided for fun, easy access. We were unable to find ANYWHERE to park the camper overnight so we decided to give in and stay in a hotel outside of town, The Angler Inn. For all that ever decide to travel to Telluride, this is the place to stay. About 10 minutes outside of town, but much less expensive and super nice. They were also incredibly dog friendly which always give a place stars in my book.
We only skiied one day. It had not snowed much in Telluride so the skiing was subpar. And, it was mostly groomed runs. We enjoyed hanging out at the hotel bar, walking around town, and the dogs and I went on a nice hike in the town park. Definitely a place I would go again, only if I have a lot more money and it's good snow. We were slightly disappointed but our trip was topped off by finding a frozen pond we were able to mess around on. Probably the highlight of Telluride.
We decided to head back to SLC, wary that Aspen would be just the same, if not worse. So, we headed off to Salt Lake to watch the Superbowl and regroup in preparation of moving up to Bozeman.
