Cd2 It was a stand-out moment at the Telluride AIDS Benefit fashion show and the epitome of throwaway chic: models in deconstructed tights and casual Ts flashing fabulous jewelry from Dolce, one of Telluride's luxury stores.


Some of that eye-popping bling was created by master jeweler Katey Brunini, whose pieces, all blockbusters, tend to be tributes in metal and gemstones to the beauty of the natural world, although her newest line of "body armor" celebrates strength. Brunini's creations have been featured on the red carpet at the Oscars and in numerous glossies, including Vogue, Town & Country and Modern Bride.

Telluride continues to increase incredible inbounds terrain access

GH stairway-sm Reflecting a European skiing experience found in Chamonix, France, the Telluride Ski Resort airlifted a new bridge and staircase to the left shoulder of Palmyra Peak. Heliqwest, a helicopter company based out of Canada, did the heavy lifting, bringing steel staircases and bridge over the ski resort to its final resting place, the span between Gold Hill Chutes 8 and 9.

“The addition is a continuation of our efforts to provide ski experience which is ‘Unmatched in North America,’” said Dave Riley, CEO of the resort. “This project was extremely technical, and our in-house staff did a phenomenal job in both planning and execution. The Telluride Ski Resort is thrilled to once again expand easy access into epic inbounds terrain.”
