REI rents, but it's still pretty expensive. I am not sure where the closest one is to Telluride. You might be better off getting a cheap tent at Walmart in Montrose and then selling it (or giving it) to a local festivarian after the fest. You could even check Craiglist for a used one for the weekend that you can give away. We flew with our gear the first year and last year we just borrowed from Denver friends.  Cheers Flower Wave

If you really like some of the stuff you could ship it home for probably cheaper than airline fees. There is a post office right in town.

More info please: Where will you be camping?  Where are you flying into?  What items do you need?  There are probably more creative solutions and camp gear rentals are probably not plentiful or affordable.

Likewise, you can ship gear to yourself in Telluride "General Delivery" and pick it up at the post office, which is right next to Town Park and the festival grounds.

Oooooo I like the idea of shipping gear to myself at the post office. I reallllllly need an electric tent heater.
