A bluebird powder day in Telluride!  Today was a great day on the resort with a fresh dump and sunny skies, hard to beat.  The photo above is a hiker on the ridge to ski Palmayra peak on the Telluride Ski Resort.

Wow what a great day!  We were forecasted for only 1-3 inches and ended up with about foot of snow. The skiing today was exceptional.

Well it took a long time but Telluride finally got a big storm.  The skiing has been amazing over the last few days with close to 2 feet of fluffy pow.  Hopefully we are now in a good storm pattern and will keep on getting the goods.

A long exposure from the other night looking towards town and Mountain Village.  The stars were particularly bright with a very small crescent moon to the west.  Things are looking a little brown around the area now with the lack of recent snow but hopefully that will change this weekend!

A partially frozen over Trout lake at sunset last night.  I was searching for some interesting patterns in the ice but all the good stuff was out a ways on the lake.  I might go back and try this again in a week when there is more ice.
