Spring Break 2010, we went skiing with the Huie Family in Telluride, Colorado. This was by far my favorite place to ski so far. The resort is smaller than Breckenride, but it has plenty of runs from beginner to challenging. The resort also has a friendly family feel with lots to do in addition to skiing. On this trip Ethan took two days of snowboarding lessons and loved it. I am not sure he will go on skis anymore - he was going down blues and blacks by the end of the trip on his snowboard. There was one run that went from the top of the mountain all the way to the the Town of Telluride. You could literally see forever on this run - hence the name "See Forever." A shot from the beginning of this run is below.

Here is a shot of the main ski village and gondola station - we could see this from the balcony of our condo. It is snowing pretty hard in this picture.

Here is another shot of the ski town.

We took a day trip to Ouray, Colorado to swim in the hot springs and go to the ice climbing park (none of us braved the ice climbing, but it was pretty cool looking!)
