I love going to Telluride. Well, it's a vacation destination for lots of folks. Once you land at the airport in Montrose where would you like to stop on the way to Telluride?

Well if you are needing supplies one of the local grocery stores in Montorse is great.

Where to go if you're hungry or need a snack?

The Hangin Tree just outside of Monrtorse has awesome deli sandwiches. You will be in the car for about an hour and 15 minutes.

Do you need coffee?

The Coffee Trader is great, and two locations. Oh and the one at the airport too, once you head home.

Is this your first time ever going to Telluride?

Take lots of pictures. The ride to the town of Ridgway is cool too. If you are not in a hurry, stop in Ridgway and try a taco from Gnar. They are so good.

Once you get to Telluride, you will be in awe of all the beauty. If you love mountains, you have come to the right place. I suggest High Pie 8750 for a beer and pizza. They have so many beers on tap. Also, the Floradora Saloon is great too. Don't forget it's free to ride the gondola.

Enjoy your stay in Telluride. If you are local you know the ride from Montrose to Telluride is breathtaking. I always say, I'm going to miss this beauty one day, but not today!
