Double Black Diamond Training

I had a blast training on the ski slopes of Telluride. Thanks to Tom Berg, I attempted 3 double black diamonds. Double black diamonds are used to mark the most difficult ski trails and terrain. This was very intense and a totally different type of skiing vs straight down hill. I had a few accidents happen. I always had to make sure my turns were sharp and quick.

Winter Training On The Slopes in Telluride

Telluride is one of my favoriate places on this earth. Telluride Ski Resort is a ski resort located in Mountain Village, Colorado right next to Telluride. The mountain itself covers the face facing the town of Telluride as well as goes over onto the other side(Prospect Bowl). Telluride has a total of 120 runs and 2,000+ acres (810+ hectacres) of skiable terrain. 23% of Telluride's runs are ranked at Beginner, 36% Intermediate and 41% Advanced / Expert. Telluride on average receives 309 inches (789 cm) of snow each winter season.
