Telluride Storyz (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798892178303)

No book describes modern-day Telluride's beauty and bemusements better than Telluride Storyz - by uproarious, irreverent, and occasionally notorious writer Rob Story. A veteran scribe for Rolling Stone, Men's Journal, Outside, Skiing, and other publications you might know, Story has won the Lowell Thomas Award for ski journalism and Best Humorous Column from the Colorado Press Association.

You'll read remarkable, scintillating stories in Telluride Storyz. Like the time a mysterious visitor dumped thousands of dollars on Colorado Hwy. 145. The eternal affection Telluride holds for Porta Potties. The sensation of slamming a street sign, at 20 mph, with one's eyebrow while biking in the dark. The guy who survived a fall off an 800-foot cliff. The condoms and lonely mittens found beneath chairlifts once the snow melts. The rock star who once stole Story's skis.

Be forewarned: Telluride Storyz alludes to risqu? subjects like recreational drugs and sex between dogs. Why? Because unlike previous Telluride books, this one doesn't obsess over long-dead mining history. Instead, Telluride Storyz chronicles the unhinged characters, hairball adventures, and full-moon deliriums that make life in 21st century Telluride so intoxicating.
