TELLURIDE VOTED #1 TERRAIN PARK IN THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS 2008 

Who has the best terrain parks at any Rocky Mountain ski resort according to visitors to OnTheSnow.com? They're at Telluride, Colo. OnTheSnow.com, which attracts an audited 1.2 million individuals monthly during the winter, gave its visitors the opportunity to write reviews of all North American resorts and rank them in five categories.

The reviewers were clear in their comments about Telluride that went beyond the parks: "The après-ski is also great; not only is the town full of great restaurants but it has every conceivable type of bar, from dive-bar, ski-bum hangouts and saloons, pool bars and brew pubs to cocktail lounges and champagne (and even oxygen) bars…There is every type of skiing from the very beginner to the best over-the-top skier… Fast lifts. You can wear yourself out in half a day…"
