What's New This Season at Steamboat
It seems like a blink of an eye. That it was just yesterday the first skis were strapped on, the principal trails were laid out and the ski area first took shape. Today, we celebrate a mountain that is truly legendary in its physical attributes and equally compelling in its emotional ones. This year, celebrate the amazing spirit and vision that created the Steamboat Ski Area 50 years ago and all that has evolved over that time. From the first chairlift to the first lesson to the first nonstop flight, Steamboat has worked to continuously improve the guest experience and the coming winter season offers a variety of new programs, packages, passes, events and more that keeps the tradition alive.
