The original visitors of Telluride were the Ute Indians, Spanish Explorers and Immigrant Miners -- each drawn by the natural beauty and resources of region.
Butch Cassidy and his "Wild Bunch" staged a famous robbery of the San Miguel Valley Bank in 1889 which forever put Telluride on the map. The bank burned down in 1892, but the legend of Butch Cassidy, the miners and the San Juan Mountains live on.
Today, Telluride resembles Aspen 20 years ago. Celebrities are being drawn to establish their hideouts in this neck of the woods.

Mountain heights that welcome winter adventures, hail summer explorers as well. Here’s to relaxing afternoons and cosmopolitan evenings. To four star dining and shopping. To the San Juan – the steepest range of the Rockies and the Utah dessert to the West.
