Telluride is a winter wonderland this morning, waking up to crisp mountain temps of -6.2°F. With a solid snowpack depth of 31 inches—just a touch below the seasonal average—conditions are primed for an exhilarating day on the slopes. The snow water equivalent clocks in at 7.3 inches, ensuring the terrain stays soft and carve-worthy. While there’s no fresh snow forecasted for today, the clear skies and frigid temps should maintain the quality of the snowpack, making for fast, responsive runs on the groomers and playful powder stashes in the trees. Layer up—it’s cold, but the skiing is as picturesque as it gets.
Keep an eye on backcountry conditions, as a recent avalanche fatality near Red Mountain Pass underscores the importance of safety for those venturing beyond the ropes. With Telluride featured as one of the most scenic winter destinations, the charm of this iconic mountain town is undeniable. Whether you're here for the skiing, the views, or the après, Telluride is delivering the quintessential winter escape.
