Known for its colorful history and fantastic skiing, Telluride is an amazing escape at any time of the year. From its champagne powder snow in the winter, to its fly fishing and hot-air ballooning in the summer, Telluride is the perfect place to enjoy the great outdoors.While Telluride is now a famous, world-class ski resort, it began as a mining town in the late 1800s. The origin of the town's unusual name is not known. Some say it was named for the ore of the nonmetallic element tellurium that was found in combination with the gold and silver in the mines.
