Telluride Powder Day

(Telluride Powder Day)

Having a powder day at Telluride Ski Resort is the dream of any avid skier or snowboarder. Located high in the mountains of southwest Colorado, Telluride’s slopes offer great terrain, stunning alpine views, and some of the best natural refrigerators in Colorado.

The powder stashes can be found in low-angled trees along Silver Tip, Alta, and Henrys. Powder days require a quick action to snag a spot. Getting stuck in too-deep pow is no fun.

Telluride’s lift infrastructure is top-notch. You can use the app to track your progress and get information on snow conditions. There are also webcams available to keep you informed.

The average annual snowfall is 280 inches. The highest peak, Palmyra Peak, offers a unique 2,000 foot couloir. There are also several double black diamond runs.

While Telluride does not have many day-trippers, it is well worth a visit on a powder day. Although the lift ticket prices are high, Telluride offers free lift tickets for children under five.

The best time to visit Telluride is in the latter half of March. This is when the slopes receive the highest snow-to-people ratio. This is also when the snow is freshest. It’s also a great time to check out lodging deals. Homes in the mountain Village are available for $2,000 or more per night in February and March.

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is a black, cubic crystalline powder. It is used as a semiconductor, infrared optical window, and solar cell material. Its properties are similar to those of zinc selenide. It is also used for spectroscopic analysis and g -ray detectors. It is toxic if ingested.
