    For four days, Telluride Bluegrass attracts more than 10,000 "festivarians" from around the world to the historic mining town of Telluride (population 2000), nestled at the end of a box canyon in southwestern Colorado. With non-stop music on the main stage, intimate workshops, late-night "Nightgrass" concerts at every indoor venue, and jam sessions in condos and campgrounds, Telluride's 2009 acoustic adventure continues the tradition as one of the world's great music festivals.  For more info, check out the festival website.

    Telluride’s terrain may be steep and challenging on the town side, yet it has plenty of intermediate and family terrain as well on the Mountain Village side. If you are staying in town, which would be my choice. The other side of the mountain, the town side, is where the goods are. Lift 6 has short steep bumps that can get pretty skied out, but when the snow is good it offers some fast steep tree or bump skiing. Lift 8 is what you would take to access the steeper terrain from town which leads you into lift 9. http://www.wintersports360.net/telluride-ski-resort-skiers-delight.html
