A long time ago and far far away, I was a roofer (This was before I grew a brain) and I worked a few in Telluride, Colorado.
We took a trip back there for Vacation recently and this one is still standing. Originally, it was built as the public library but it seems to have been converted to a youth center now. I worked a crew of three to roof it in winter. By Golly, did we ever shovel snow off that thing!

Around the other side of it stands a "gaurdhouse gazeebo" that I roofed alone.
Lots of flashing details went into this job.
*piffen... those are great looking roofs..was it a national mfr. or local ?have you worked with ATAS ?
*Piffin: Lots of thought and care in those projects. Nice work.
*I was working for a company then so no details on the manufacturer. It was a heavy gauge, epoxy tough finish, as I remember it, from a national manufacturer.I'm surprised at the fast response to the posting, guys
*Piffin, nice job, what a really cool place to work.
*You bet. Butch cassidy started his career there.
*Butch Cassidy started his career at a converted youth center? Or was is the library? I did not know that ;o)
*The first Bank he knocked off was in that last photo.
Piffin,
I was in Telluride this past summer on vacation. Stayed over the mountain in Oiray but we 4 wheeled back and forth over the pass. It's sure changed since my first visit back in the early 70's. I had to take out a loan just to eat lunch on main street. God's country though. Most awesome views up on those passes I've seen yet anywhere. Did you work there for long?
