we have no dh/freeride trails in Steamboat. All trails are multi use and multi directional which basiclly creates an unsafe situation for all users when the resort is selling lift tickets to people so they can ride their bikes downhill. i would sugg…
Hi Evan,
The only changes likely to be live for your period are the incidental beetle-kill remediation that is going on around the mountain. What that means is that some trails might have detours if we're doing logging to pull down/out the dead tre…
Hi Evan,
I'll post back on this either later today or tomorrow after I hear back from our Mtn Ops/MTB'ing folks.
One likely change is that the snow will be gone on Pete's Wicket Trail ;)

- Hi James,
Thanks for your reply. I always get nervous about the snow but I'm never disappointed! I never saw the billboard you're referencing but I drive through Virginia Highlands all the time. I doubt you miss Atlanta too much. It sounds like you love it at Steamboat. We went to Winter Park last year and I'm hoping Steamboat will be even better!!! Be well and Merry Christmas.

- Can you add the Men's and Women's Club program to this site somewhere. I'm super stoked on it and would love to get it out in all formats. It's going to be awesome for all our guests.

Kim (mojomom) said… - It's fun to watch the good ones at Hell Hole and at C-Hole. C-Hole was romping when I was there in June. (Great water year on the Yampa -- we saw a 14 foot raft trying to surf C-Hole do a complete end over end flip, sending swimmers everywhere and landing upright). Being old and stuff I don't play much. My line at Hell Hole is avoidance -- river left eddy, then ferry below for Powerhouse ledge. Even at big levels, C-Hole is nicely punchable near the river right bank. I've played there a bit (if you could call my tentative surfing/spin attempts real play moves) at it at lower levels, but at the levels this summer, I just couldn't get up the nerve. D-Hole would've been fun, but no eddy service at those levels.

More or less a wide open mountainside but it is a ton of terrain considering there was none there previously with the exception of two narrow runs.
Hopefully someone else from resort can shed light on future plans but I have heard a new lift comes i…
So will this add new trails or just wide open mountainside? What lift would service the area? I do agree that Steamboat is not the best mountain for beginners so anything to help add more green runs would be a great thing!
This weekend is loaded with 2 very special concerts. On Friday night, the Easy Star All-Stars come back to town as part of the Steamboat Springs Free Summer Concert Series. The Easy Star All-Stars specialize in covering popular albums in reggae and…
that will be real nice!!!! lots of room to practice.
If you are looking up from the base of the Thunderhead lift it is up and to the right all the way to the race arena and down to the Christy express half way point.
Where is the new area located or close to? My new skiers in my family will be happy to hear this!!!
Ski and Snowboard Rentals by Fleischer Sport can tell you that the recent clear cutting of the private land the ski area owns is going to significantly enhance the overall experience of beginner skiers for the ski area.The amount of terrain and acre…
Thanks for the updates, super stoked to see some new stuff that we can play on this season!
Michael,
Sorry to hear you have such bitter feelings toward the park and park staff here in Steamboat. Yes it was well over do and huge efforts are being put forward to improve the parks situation here Steamboat. This improvement process started a w…
Michael-
By my count, there were 9 jumps and about 25 rails set up last year in 3 separate parks. Your video clip shows you hitting at least 7 different rails. All the takeoffs and landings look pretty decent in your video, also. Good thing the par…
The best time to buy your lift tickets is in June early booking is never early enough, really. But airfare wise, if you start too early you can be really gouged by the airlines. My January trip was booked in June and I've seen up to $200 per ticket…
