THE TELLURIDE GONDOLA: Photos of Telluride's Mountain Scenery - October 23, 2005
Here are some photos of Telluride scenery from our
ride on the Telluride Gondola. The Gondola is free to
ride during the non-ski season and connects the town of Telluride with Mountain
Village and many of the ski runs.

MIDDLE: Way up the hill, again looking back at Telluride.
BOTTOM: Looking off more to the northwest.
There are definitely a few parts where I became frightened by the heights.
I learned not to look down to keep my sanity. Meanwhile, Dave (right) smiled contently throughout the ride.
The area of Mountain Village is a well-planned
ski village with ski slopes that intertwine with the homes. It definitely looks impressive!
Looking towards the south and southwest,
I got one shot of the Wilson Group. The lighting was poor, but hey, I did my best! ;)
