Telluride is known for some of the most
exhilarating terrain in the Rocky Mountains and this season, with the introduction of
Revelation Bowl, they plan on building on that reputation. The new area, just past Gold Hill, usually collects tons of snow in Tellurides growing expanse. Skiers will have access to extreme steeps or more gentle open areas with deep faces-hots guarrenteed! Last season saw the opening of Black Iron Bowl, Palmyra Peak and Gold Hill Chutes 6-10. This year's addition is sure to please.
Telluride plans to open later this month and the timing couldn't be better for the latest round of storms that have rolled through. Last week, they received 27 inches of snow and there is more snow forecast for this week. Can you hear the big boom of the Howitzer Cannon's? If you can, that is because there is already enough snow on the high terrain to do avalanche control work. With all this snow, the resort has released some
great new specials.
It seems the reports out of snow country are becoming more common on the subject of new snow. This picture just came in from Aspen Snowmass Resort. Here is some new snow on Maroon Bells Peaks across from Aspen Mountain.
Aspen Snowmass resort got into the excitement with some early snow of their own. As you can see by the photo, snow was falling at the Sheer Bliss lift at Aspen. Snowmaking is scheduled to begin soon at Aspen as well. Home to some of the best skiing in the Rocky Mountains, Aspen Snowmass also hosts some of the biggest events in snow country. From the X Games to World Cup Skiing Events, there is always something going one there.
