Completely mismanaged - Horning has turned a good resort into a disaster.
nice mountain if the lifts are running
Atleast 40 days last year one or another lift was down for mecnaical reasons. Upper mountain doesn't get open until mid day after as little as a six inch storm

Here's a (partial) list of days during which lifts were closed due to mechanical problems: 12/24, 12/31, 1/6, 1/7, 1/12, 1/13,1/14, 1/15, 1/17, 1/18,1/19, 1/21, 1/23, 2/1, 2/3, 2/8, 2/13, 2/15, 2/18, 2/21, 3/3, 3/4, 3/5, 3/11, 3/12, and 3/19. These were not closed for a few minutes - they were all day closures due to mechanical failures. This is not even a 3rd tier resort any longer - it's a joke
great terrain when they get it open
6" of snow causes delays in opening the upper lifts until mid day. Lifts constantly closed diue to mechanical problem

NOTHING

My favorite place to ski, and I have skied a lot of places, even in Austria. Panoramic views dominate the area. Even flying into the tiny TEX airport gives you a sense of adventure to begin your vacation and ease of getting in and out is unparalleled by most.
Low crowds are definitely a plus for me. Some state that they don't like Telluride because it's difficult to get to. That is what appeals to me, hence not being super crowded like others with easy access off I-70. Gorgeous views and limitless variety of
Cost of lift tickets has gone crazy. There are still ways to save with the Epic pass though to make it more affordable.

Beautiful mountain and enjoyed the days that I skied there. No complaints from me. Never had to wait in line to get on the lifts.
Great town and mountain. Beautiful views
None

I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to visit the first three of the resorts on this list just last year in 2023, Steamboat, Telluride, and Breckinridge. Although I’ve been to Breckinridge several times and have only been to Steamboat and Telluride once, I thInk that Telluride is the best Mountain and Ski Town I’ve ever visited thus far and I would love to visit it again and would recommend it to anyone who loves the winter outdoors and skiing.
No waiting in long lines for the lifts
Could use more updated lifts

Trip just after first full snow fall - overall best experience for first time at Telluride. It was an unforgettable 6-day trip! Great lodging, great places to eat and drink, Bon Vivant on the mountain was the ultimate place to be on the mountain! Definitely will be going to Telluride on a regular basis.
Minimal lift lines, many lift and gondola options to get across the entire mountain, friendly staff across mountain, many options for dining
None from our experience
Dan Cummins

Apres, lifts and lift lines, all walkable
Expensive
