Standing 365 feet tall in Telluride, Bridal Veil Falls is Colorado’s tallest free-falling waterfall, and one of the most classic and difficult ice climbs in North America. However, for those who have never ice climbed, Telluride is surrounded by easily accessible routes and climbs for all levels and abilities. We’re partnering with San Juan Outdoor Adventures, a fully insured USDA Forest Service permitted outfitter located in Telluride, to introduce beginners to ice climbing. No previous experience is required.
In the 1800’s, the cry of “Gold!” or “Silver!” lured thousands of prospectors to the West in hopes of striking rich. As a result, Colorado is full of mining ghost towns. Telluride itself is a former silver mining camp with a rich history and is surrounded by a number of mining ghost towns. Autumn is also known as ‘Gold Season’ in the Rocky Mountains due to the shimmering gold leaves of the Aspen trees. And this fall, we’re bringing the mining history up close again with its annual and exclusive ‘Mining or Bust, Telluride Ghost Town History’ package, available from September 8 – October 20, 2020.
