An Update from Telski and Dave Riley

Telski Preparing for the 2010/2011 Ski Season with Numerous Improvements

For several years, Telski has focused on large capital improvements to enhance the ski area, by expanding both terrain and dining options (such as Revelation Bowl, the stairway to the Gold Hill Chutes, Alpino Vino, and the Hop Garden). For the upcoming season, the staff members and management group at Telluride Ski and Golf are busy working to improve the on-mountain experience. Below are some of these projects:

* Upgraded online sales systems and email systems

* Allred’s is getting new custom carpet this fall, as well as four large new elk antler chandeliers
in the main dining room and a new flat screen TV in the bar area

* Alpino Vino is getting new outdoor electric radiant heaters for the deck

* The Hop Garden is getting new outdoor electric radiant heaters for the patio, additional outdoor furniture, and new beer lines which will be run underground from the Plaza building to the outdoor bar so they can offer 8 varieties on tap outside

* Numerous projects are being completed on the chairlifts to reduce down-time

* A new 12-person heated and enclosed snowcat "people hauler" trailer has been purchased, to
use for periodic dinners at Alpino Vino

* Significant brush-cutting is happening this fall on the north side slopes

* New gladed ski runs are being developed. Below is a list of areas Telski hopes to complete before the weather turns:
A. Skier’s left of Silver Tip (5)
B. Skier’s right of Henry’s Run (5)
C. Lower Terminal Role (12)
D. Skier’s right of Stella (12)
E. Skier’s right of Upper Sandia (12)
F. Skier’s right of Log Pile (9)
G. Skier’s left of Joint Point (9)

* Telski will have several new features/jibs for terrain parks

* Pumping capacity is being doubled in the Misty Maiden pumphouse, which will enhance the
speed of snowmaking in chair 4, 5 and 6 pods

* A new women’s boutique called "The Swanky Buckle" will open in Mountain Village

* A new print gallery called "Gold Hill Gallery" will open in Mountain Village

* New Nastar buildings for the top and bottom of the race course are being constructed.

It promises to be a beautiful ski season! As always, please feel free to contact me for more information on this or Telluride real estate at 970-728-1234 or buzz@fedorka.com.
