TELLURIDE REGIONAL AIRPORT TO RE-OPEN
NOVEMBER 4th
|
|
The Telluride Regional Airport reconstruction project which
began on April 7, 2009 is scheduled to be completed on time with a grand
re-opening scheduled for 12:00 on November 4th.
This phase of the runway project
included the removal of the existing runway and a great reduction in grades
to increase safety and meet FAA standards. For those of you who have flown
in and out of Telluride, the infamous “dip” in the runway has
been raised by 16 feet which is an obvious improvement.
Currently two carriers are scheduled
to provide service to Denver and Phoenix; Great Lakes
and US Air.

TELLURIDE SKI RESORT ANNOUNCES MORE NEW TERRAIN AND MORE
SNOW
|
|
Telluride
Ski Resort has announced plans to open more new terrain this coming ski
season, for the third year in a row. The new terrain is located in Prospect
Bowl, specifically Gold Hill Chutes 2 through 5. This new terrain will be
accessible via a hike from the summit of Revelation lift and consists of
adrenaline inducing steep, rocky, treeless chutes.
The Ski
Resort has also received approval from the US Forest Service to add
additional water storage for snowmaking operations. This will allow the ski
area to build new underground snowmaking pipelines and improve or replace
some of the existing ones.

Telluride has been chosen as the new
home of international snowboarding competition in the U.S. as the 2010 Visa U.S. Snowboardcross
Cup hits the Rocky Mountains Dec. 17-20.
Telluride will be the sole U.S. stop of the LG FIS
Snowboard World Cup and will feature several competitions which will be the
second in a series of five Olympic qualification events.
The Telluride Ski Area and the towns
of Mountain
Village and Telluride
are excited to be hosting the upcoming Snowboard World Cup beginning on
December 17, 2009," added Frank Bell, Co-Chair of the Organizing Committee.
"These challenging and crowd pleasing events, which will be the Telluride
area's first World Cup competition, will showcase things to come at the
Vancouver Olympics in February of 2010. We hope the world will join us
either in person or through the media coverage in introducing the best
snowboarders in the world to the great terrain, spectacular mountain
setting, and two great ski towns that embrace the 2009 Snowboard World
Cup."
