I fondly recall skiing T after a three foot dump back in the 90s. Problem is- I had no idea at the time what to do with so much pow.
Exceptions prove the rule!

Do not understand the "stretching of truths". I think some areas tend to open terrain with less coverage, but, if a run is open how are they stretching truth by claiming it is open?
as mentioned recently I am indeed getting excited and a lot has improved.Given the amount of terrain open by this weekend in comparison with when this thread was started, @Goose should be thrilled. And if he gets snow during his trip (which is always a crapshoot, regardless) it will be amazing.
Yea I hear ya with that. I don't really know what that mean either. What if it closes again?The thing that troubles me, and not unique to Telluride, is the proviso that once a run is open it is considered "open for the season".
Jackson Hole and Telluride "* Once a trail is listed as open, it is considered to be open for the season."
Based on that, either place could claim the whole mountain is open even late in the season when it's no longer skiable. (Or even in the middle of the season if it has a lot of ice or there's melt).
Im thinking Rev Bowl which is suppose to open this weekend. Hope that holds up with enough to stay open when Im there.As far as open terrain is concerned, the only runs which still need to open that Goose would probably like are Apex and Milk Run. With all of the recent snow and the forecast for next weekend, things are looking VERY good for Telluride.
Which brings up a question for Telluride experts. Are there any secret ways to get discounted lift passes? I’ve never been able to find anything, other than the small discount with multi day tickets, and my rental company offers a few dollars more discount.
certainly snow all week would likely put the idea to rest. Honestly the idea as of recent had dwindled a lot anyway but keeping the snow watch and update (for better/worse) is addicting.It's dumping now. Possible snow every day this week. I'd say any worry you had can now be put to rest.
that shelf never got to 2 yesterday and then cleared and then this morning is at 2.Reporting a total of 9 now with maybe another inch or two today. A bit underwhelming for what was predicted but I'll definitely take it.
Joel reporting light snow for the rest of the week but NOAA reporting heavy snow on Thurs night in the 3-7 inch range.
Joel saying a weak to moderate system likely next week. I've been waiting with baited breath for next week's forecast as we leave for T on Saturday.
I'm sure the skiing will be great as is but some freshies will really be icing on the cake.
