06 Telluride, Colorado
Although it was originally established as a settlement for gold prospectors, Telluride attracts far more adventure seekers than gold-seekers these days. The town's ski resort offers roughly 2,000 acres of terrain for skiing, miles of trails for hiking, and an 18-hole golf course. But the downtown area still maintains its Old West flavor, with flashbacks to Colorado's gold rush days at every turn.
