Telluride and related destinations

Suspended in a box canyon, this former mining town flaunts Victorian architecture beneath towering San Juan peaks. The free gondola offers aerial views that explain why locals never leave. Summer brings a parade of festivals where film buffs and music lovers mingle on Colorado Avenue. Hike to thundering Bridal Veil Falls or tackle Bear Creek Trail's wildflower-lined path. Winter transforms the town into a skier's paradise with uncrowded slopes and legendary powder. The Sheridan Opera House hosts performances in a venue that hasn't lost its frontier elegance. Town Park buzzes with picnickers and pickup games against a backdrop that makes smartphone cameras seem woefully inadequate. Even the most jaded travelers find themselves plotting permanent relocation after just one visit.
