Elkstone 21 was completed the summer of 2010
Read the Press Release
The runway will be closed from April 7 to November 2, 2009. Ground transportation and helicopter service will remain available. When the runway reopens, our safe airport will be even safer plus passengers and pilots will have a smoother and flatter surface.
There will still be some work around the airport through December 2010, however the airport will not be closed. By late Fall 2010, some larger aircraft with greater passenger capacities, such as the Bombardier Q400, will be able to service the Telluride airport. Getting to and from Telluride will be even easier once the runway and airport modernization are completed.
In the meantime, enjoy the beauty of southwestern Colorado as you use some of the transportation options that are available over the summer and fall.
