Snow is falling in the high country, which means it is time to plan your winter ski vacation. There are so many great ski resorts, it is really difficult to choose one. 

If you need some suggestions from fellow snow seekers, look no further than SKI Magazine, which just released the results from its reader’s survey. Telluride is ranked as the #5 best resort in the West and also ranked well in several other areas that make for a great ski vacation:

#1 Character

# 3 Terrain

# 5 Lodging

#6 Dining

#7 Challenge

#10 Terrain Variety

One SKI Reader survey participant said “Am I in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe? Because this is Gnarnia. Seriously, please scatter my ashes here when I die.” 

Maybe it’s time you check out Gnarnia this winter.
