Real Estate Corner

As we approach the beginning of the 2009/2010 ski season, anticipation mounts on many fronts. Anticipation of those first few turns, pending weather forecasts and skiing new terrain are apparent in every local conversation. Area brokers are cautiously optimistic that the US has indeed rounded the corner with respect to this nationwide recession and are hopeful that more savvy buyers will begin taking advantage of the tremendous deals being presented. Anticipation for increased activity this winter is high as properties are already starting to move. The best deals are being scooped up as we speak proving that a market currently exists at the right price. Patience and persistence seem to be the name of the game. If you have ever considered buying property in Telluride, now is the time to begin your search. Prices won't stay this low forever.

WHAT'S NEW IN TELLURIDE
» Telluride Airport is now open
» Snowboard World Cup in Telluride

Telluride Airport is now open - November 4, 2009
Phase II reconstruction started on April 7 and completed November 4th, 2009. Phase II consisted of the removal of the existing runway and reducing the grades which resulted in the west end of the runway being lowered by 30 feet the center of the runway (dip error) was raised 16 feet, and the east end of the runway was lowered 14 feet. The result of this is a runway that now meet FAA standards. In addition, the safety areas west of the old dip area have been widened to 250 feet from 150 feet. We have also added all new runway lighting and extended the length of the runway to 6,911 feet.

Phase III we're anticipating having completed in 2010 which will widen the remaining safety areas and add engineered material arresting system (EMASS).

For any additional information, please contact Mr. Richard W. Nuttall, Airport Manager at 970-728-5313.

Snowboard World Cup in Telluride
Telluride is the sole U.S. stop of the LG sponsored FIS (International Ski Federation) Snowboard World Cup and will feature both SBX (snowboardcross) and PGS (parallel giant slalom) competitions during the second in a series of five Olympic qualification events for the two disciplines.


With snowmaking already in full swing, the mountain will be fully prepared and eager as athletes, coaches, media, families and friends from around the world visit Telluride for this Olympic qualifying event.

"Snowmaking is off to one of our best starts in years with the cold weather, and the new snow we have received in the last couple of weeks is a great bonus," said Ryan Mackey, snowmaking and grooming manager. "Currently we are making snow on Upper Village Bypass, Lower Boomerang into the Mountain Village, Meadows and Lower Misty Maiden (especially for the World Cup)."

According to U.S. Snowboarding Head Coach Peter Foley, Telluride is a perfect home in the west for an early-season World Cup stop. "With the early start on snow happening at Telluride we are getting really excited to get there. We can't wait to show the athletes from around the world how great Telluride is and let them experience a real world class course."

Competition and Event Services Manger, John Jett, has been working with the USSA and the FIS on course procedures and qualifications. "The last of our summer projects for the event, including laying the timing wire for the PGS, has been completed. Both FIS and USSA course inspections have been approved for the World Cup Competition," said Jett.

"Our core competition jury; Technical Delegate Tim O'Brien (CAN), Chief of SBX Gary Wright, Chief of PGS Mark Lamberson, and FIS Commissioner Tom Winters met to review our operating plan, to ask questions and offer suggestions. They are truly excited and in awe of our progress," continued Jett. "Looking forward, the next month and a half is all about the details, logistics and scheduling of our volunteer manpower."

"The Telluride Ski Area and the towns of Mountain Village and Telluride are excited to be hosting the upcoming Snowboard World Cup beginning on December 17, 2009," added Frank Bell, Co-Chair of the Organizing Committee. "These challenging and crowd pleasing events, which will be the Telluride area's first World Cup competition, will showcase things to come at the Vancouver Olympics in February of 2010. We hope the world will join us either in person or through the media coverage in introducing the best snowboarders in the world to the great terrain, spectacular mountain setting, and two great ski towns that embrace the 2009 Snowboard World Cup."

Telluride will be the sole U.S. stop of the LG FIS Snowboard World Cup and will feature an SBX, PGS and the newly added Team Snowboardcross competition during what will be the second in a series of five Olympic qualification events. The heat will be on in the snowboardcross as four athletes race through rollers, jumps and banked turns in an attempt to be the last racer standing.
