Telluride 2012 “AZ Days Dumped On”

 

Another great Arizona Days in Telluride hosted by Mike’s AZ Fun & Leisure. The concern of marginal snow was quickly doused as we hit the slopes finding great conditions and sunshine on Friday. It’s always nice to be able to ski with our friends as well as friends we’ve made over the years on Mikes trips.

Friday’s sun gave way to a snowy Saturday that continued into Saturday night giving us desert dwellers an awesome snow filled weekend. Skiing Saturday was both snowy and windy with 40 m/h gusts at the top of the mountain. Best of all, it wasn’t that cold.

The weekend was filled with music with Roger headlining the weekend at the Sheridan Opera House theater on Saturday night with snow flying outside. We were also treated to Teddy entertaining us on Thursday and Friday nights. Finally the snow cleared late morning Sunday allowing us to have a safe quick bus ride home.. Fun Fun Fun weekend.
