Telluride

A box canyon so steep the ski resort built a free gondola just to get between town and the mountain, a film festival every Labor Day that punches well above the town's population, and waterfalls in summer that make the whole valley sound like it is applauding.
The best time to visit Telluride is Dec–Mar, or Jun–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 32°C (89°F).
