Laura ,
Ya'll must still be busy, haven't heard from you in awhile. By the looks of the mountain cams ,things went the way it was planned. Its good to see the base and mountain white. Hopefully it will stay . chris and I are headed to Breakenridg...
Yay Ron! Good news...except I'm not ready to snowblow the driveway yet!! I guess I'll just have to suck it up! I think Barry must have been skiing at loveland or A-Basin or one of those resorts that opened earlier than us. I was going to go to Lov...
Ok everyone, get your dancing shoes on, looks like the Boat is going to get some snow begining tonight.
Yampa valley is under a winter storm warning until Sat. with snow starting after midnight tonight maybe up they are predicting 4 to 8 inches a...
After 3 years at the Boat, we finally found One stop last year, I bought a pair of boots and all of our group had custom insoles. This made a huge difference in our skiing.
John and his guys spent a couple hours working on my wifes boots and it ma...
Hiya! Love the photos!! Look at all that snow!!! I am available on both the 9th and 10th...whatever you would like. Are Doug and Korinna (I probably spelled that wrong...sorry!) coming back too? It will be great to see you folks again :)
Hi!
So I have some not-so-good news...Fredrik and I have to go to Denver on the 10th, so we won't make it out to the Tap House with you. :( His parents are flying in from Sweden so we need to get them at the airport. Would another evening work for you guys? When are you coming in? We'd really love to have an evening out with you...let us know what your schedule is looking like. I'm still on for monday the 9th, and am really looking forward to skiing with you again!! Also, can't wait to meet Doug and Korinna's daughter.
I've gotta run...keep in touch
Laura

i think we are going to the Sheraton for the Christmas buffet. Others have suggested the Ore House, Cafe Diva alos. Yes book ahead of time. thats what i will be doing next week.
Usually kids don't want to wear the hood thing, but carry it in your pocket just in case. If it's really cold once you get on there on the slopes, I'll bet you big money that'll change.
Temps have been great for snowmaking and we definitely have more snow this year than we had last year. I wouldn't worry, we tend to get dumped on in December.
Here's a good article about late starts and how the season turns out.
I have been checking the cameras lately, and there does not appear to be alot of snow on the mountain, and not much in the forecast?
Getting nervous about our trip out December 18th. Anything to worry about?
I agree with the balaclava. If your boys are going to wear helmets, which they should, then you can buy a nice under helmet hat/balaclava, a must in Steamboat. The key to keeping warm on the mountain is layers. (and toe warmers!)
I ski with my boys every January in Steamboat (now 10 & 8) and they wear the whole kit every day since they stay up top most the whole day ... base layer top and bottom, fleece top (& bottom if it's Arctic cold), and down jacket. They used to wear...
