The skiing experience at Telluride continues to improve dramatically. The ski tourism market has had noticeable growth in 2008. A new high was reached in January, 2008 with over 8,000 people hitting the slopes during the peak holiday month. Even with that many people on the slopes during peak times, lift lines continue to be comparatively short, and during non-holiday times, lift-lines are virtually non-existent.
Prospect Bowl area opened in 2002, adding over 700 acres and over 20 new ski trails served by three new high speed quad lifts. The expansion into this bowl dramatically improves the overall skiing experience, and puts Telluride on the map as a world-class ski resort.
Mountain Quail, the guided hike-to chute in Prospect Bowl that debuted during the 2004-2005 ski season is back by popular demand.
