sperkins+FollowMonarch Mountain steps up for Telluride skiersMonarch Mountain is throwing a lifeline to skiers left stranded by the Telluride Ski Resort closure. With Telluride’s ski patrollers on strike and the lifts at a standstill, Monarch is offering three free lift tickets to anyone with a Telluride pass or recent ticket. This move is more than just a generous gesture—it’s a reminder of how tight-knit Colorado’s ski community can be when things get tough. Local businesses in Telluride are already feeling the pinch, so this offer could help keep winter plans alive for many. How do you think this shake-up will impact the ski season? #Travel #Telluride #MonarchMountain00Share
Julie Padilla+FollowTelluride ski season hits a major snagHoliday plans are suddenly up in the air for anyone heading to Telluride this weekend—one of Colorado’s most famous ski resorts is shutting down right at the peak of the season. The ski patrol is striking for better pay, saying their wages haven’t kept up with the high cost of living in the area. Locals and visitors are frustrated, especially those who’ve already spent thousands on their trips. It’s a reminder of how essential these workers are—not just for safety, but for the whole mountain experience. What do you think: should resorts do more to support their staff? #News #Telluride #SkiPatrol10Share
