Telski is a ski industry leader and role model to other resorts in building trendsetting technology. The chondola and gondola systems are innovative, imaginative and something no other mountain community has. They signify the giant leap Telski has taken in initiating advanced transit systems.
ENVIRONMENT MATTERS
The gondola virtually eliminates noise and air pollution, congested parking lots and the need for people to drive their vehicles between the two towns. It simultaneously provides clean, smooth, quiet, free and visually spectacular transportation. The gondola towers are low profile, usually not exceeding tree line, lessening the visual impact typical of gondolas while also dramatically reducing the likelihood of shutdown due to high winds.
Telluride’s gondola is the equivalent of three highspeed express lifts. While it transports skiers and snowboarders to a mountain ridge, it is primarily a public transportation system, and it’s free to foot passengers. It virtually eliminates the need for a car and drastically reduces the amount of air and noise pollution. It eliminates growing traffic congestion and subsequently increases safety. It provides residents with an easy commute to work or school and allows guests to avoid renting a car. Most remarkably, it is more convenient and timely than a bus, a car or even light rail. Pet-friendly cabins are available.
THE FIRST OF ITS KIND
For several years, the Telluride Ski & Golf Company (Telski) worked diligently to build the first-of-its-kind $16 million public transit system intended to eliminate the transportation and air quality impact of growth in the region. The first part of the system, the chondola, a high-speed quad with a 4-person gondola cabin every 10th chair, opened in the 1995/96 season. The gondola, joining the historic town of Telluride with the town of Mountain Village and serving several ski runs, opened in November of 1996.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COMMUTE IN AMERICA
The gondola provides transportation between towns for people commuting to work, going to the grocery store or meeting friends. Beginner skiers and snowboarders can reach beginner terrain without the hassle of a car or bus. Parents can transport their kids to Children’s Ski School in the morning. Local kids can ride it to and from school.

helpful hints SUN AND WEATHER
The San Juan Mountains and the Telluride region are some of the most beautiful places in the world. Though they offer all forms of recreational activities, both in the summer and winter, the beauty of our area comes with problems that may affect your visit. The following are suggestions that might help you to prevent any such problems:
The sun is much more powerful at high altitude than anywhere else. We highly recommend using sunscreen anytime you are going to be outside. Whether it is sunny or cloudy, summer or winter, bad sunburn can ruin a great vacation. It also gets very chilly at night, even in the summer, and we recommend bringing warm clothes for your evening adventures. In winter, most people wear several layers to protect themselves from the cold. Make sure that you have dry boots and gloves in order to protect yourself from frostbite. If you notice a loss of sensation in your fingers, toes, cheeks, ears or nose, stop, look for frostbite (white, cold, numb skin) and take time to warm up. Serious frostbite can result in loss of limbs. If there is concern for this, please get help immediately.
ALTITUDE AND HUMIDITY
While staying at the Mountain Lodge at Telluride, elevation 9,500 feet, you may experience a shortness of breath, headaches, a touch of nausea or a faster heartbeat than normal. These symptoms normally affect about 15 percent of all visitors to our region. This is due to high altitude and low humidity, which means the air is thinner and there is less oxygen available. We recommend drinking as much water as possible during your stay to keep hydrated, and also for the first couple of days of your visit, we recommend one glass of water for every alcoholic beverage consumed. If you feel that your condition is getting worse, please contact the Telluride Medical Center at 970-728-3848, where doctors very familiar with altitude illness may be able to help comfort you immediately. Contact lens wearers may also be affected by the low humidity and may need to moisturize their eyes more frequently. Contact lenses may need to be removed daily to allow more oxygen into the eyes while sleeping.
ACCIDENTS AND ILLNESS
Accidents happen often while playing in a high alpine setting, but are more common when you are cold, hungry or tired. No matter what activity you are involved in, whether it is skiing, rock climbing or mountain biking, give your body plenty of food and water and keep your muscles warm so they function properly. If you are tired, quit while you are ahead to avoid injury. Please contact the Telluride Medical Center at 970-728-3848 to seek medical attention.
