Exploring Telluride, Colorado (aka A Mountain Lover's Paradise)

The adventure, the challenge, and the beauty of the San Juan Mountains makes me feel like I have found Wonderland. Hopefully you get a taste of that in this video featuring Telluride, Colorado. Next video I'll showcase Silverton, CO, another small town in the San Juans.

I love your videos! I live in Boulder and am still so obsessed with Colorado and how beautiful it is!! Also loved the motivational speech in the middle 😍

This video is exactly what I needed, my wife and I just visited telluride and we miss it so much. We both want to move to Colorado, and we've had so much negative feedback from others about it being unrealistic, but we think we can do it so we are doing our best to make it a reality, thanks for sharing and encouraging!!

Awesome view into the San Juans and Telluride, thanks Sandi! A couple of video requests: What I Ate In A Day - Camping Edition and What's In My Pack - Mountain Adventure Edition

[@RunningAmerica]

Love it! We're from the Springs, and Colorado running is the best!

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing your adventure with us! Mountains humble us and make us more of who we are and need to be. Maybe we will see you on the Great Divide Trail in Canada one day! 🏔🌸🌲🐾👟☕️🙏🌈

Amen girl. I use to work off Baseline in Boulder. I so miss it.

[@jeremyrecinos6305]

Great video Sandi! Love the little inspirational talk during your walk. Was thoroughly enjoying your video with a post- workout meal. :)

[@sunnybeach4837]

I love your videos, I live in Tennessee and have never seen anything like that. Thank you so much !

[@osodelososos5552]

Sweet video! I just got back from hiking in the San Juan Mountains. They are one of my favorite places on earth and I drove a round trip of 1,600 miles from southeast Arizona to do that. I haven’t spent time in Telluride though; I always stay in Ouray and take advantage of the hot springs after a long day of hiking 🙂 I agree with you that I feel truly blessed when I am enjoying all that amazing natural splendor. It does feel like heaven on earth. We are lucky to be able to reach these high places. Take care of your body and it will always reward you. I have just discovered your channel. Thanks for sharing so much of yourself.

I enjoyed your video, and yes the San Juan Mountain Ranges and Telluride are the best.

[@buddlybear]

[@nleepm]

Loved the video. Thanks for sharing. You are getting so good at this

[@willsessions2474]

Great video Sandi.

[@inkjob12]

I just spent almost 3 weeks in the Silverton area..did the Kendal Mountain race, watched Hard Rock and hiked and ran a lot of the local trails. Ive been trying to get some altitude in for my November trek To Mt. Everest Base Camp. I did not get a chance to see Telluride...seeing your video I need to put that town on my bucket list. loved the video...

[@curtbentley]

Ahhhh...the San Juans!!!

[@Dora-bmrwarrior]

I recently subscribed to your Channel and really enjoying your videos. This one brought back fond memories of when I lived in Telluride many years ago. The downtown area pretty much looks the same although I'd heard of development around the outskirts. Thank you!

[@jordanbrace8355]

There is a little development in Telluride, but it still has the small mountain town charm. I didn’t even recognize Silverton when I was there yesterday

[@josecarrenogarcia3734]

Oh God... I would love to live there!! It's hard to have the soul of a trail runner and work in a completely flat state xD

[@adambarber1550]

road tripping through Colorado in a few weeks and I remembered you loving Telluride and found my way back to this video. If you had to recommend just 1 or 2 runs / hikes to experience in Colorado what would they be?

[@MRNBricks]

Lovely area. You should check out Mt Rosa, near Pikes Peak. We had that about 40m into a 50m. It was absolutely brutal.

[@epicscreenname989]

I love you guys

[@joshuawedel5123]

You are awesome!

[@JoeSimonsen]

Real talk. Real marmots!

[@kevinhoule6547]

Did you guys get to soak in the Ouray pool on the way home? Also love to see a video on some trail shoes? Keep enjoying our gr8 state.

[@eklim2034]

run Forest, run

[@dirtCommie]

[@robinx6138]

The mexican food looked sooo delicious 🤤

[@jimburnsjr.]

nice video, thanks

[@paulgeirge4388]

Your awesome!

[@patrickmcleod111]

**Wow, the resemblance to my home state of Delaware is uncanny! Well, except for the mountains, and the elevations over 200ft, and the wide open spaces, and the wildflower filled meadows, and the stands of evergreens, and the unmolested natural state of the land, and the clean air... Other than that, it's absolutely identical!**

[@ismailmedia7447]

9:04 is there a bears in that place?

[@BigJohnMcCarthy1]

what happened to your shoulder sandi?

[@Incognit05]

despite what some people believe... the world still is a beautiful place

[@universeusa]

Hi there, could you tell me where these mountain lions are located, I read people have been attacked by them! Thanks!

[@alejandroking9995]

[@Lion_McLionhead]

[@stevocanuck]

[@JoeSimonsen]
