The Telluride ski area offers 1,700 acres of lift-served terrain, 24 percent of which is perfect for beginners, the rest equally divided to suit intermediate and advanced/expert skiers. Beginners soon gain confidence on the Prospect Bowl's long, gentle runs, which is why the resort is renowned as being perfect for novices. Intermediate's can stroke their ego too, rock 'n rolling down runs like Sandia, Magnolia and Stella that make you feel like an expert. Telluride's signature run is named See Forever, which is what happens as you glide down the two miles (3km) of mountainside. Awesome views are the order of the day too for the experts, who can take on daring snow highways like The Plunge, or opt for a choice of double-diamond backcountry experiences.
