Where this history comes from

Season totals are built from the Open-Meteo historical weather archive at Telluride's summit grid point (37.938, -107.812, ~13,150 ft), summed October 1 to September 30. They are modeled, not resort-reported, so they are consistent across resorts but can differ from a resort's own stake readings. Current-season numbers on the Telluride snow report use observed station data where a SNOTEL or ACIS station is linked.
