Took a trip up to the Boat for Thanksgiving, 2003 with my son (age 11) and his two friends. We arrived early evening on Thankgiving day, unloaded the car and went looking for some food. By that time, 'everything' was shut down (stores and most res...
Turkey, roast potatoes, parsnips and bread sauce, mmmmmm .... knew I should have lunch today :(
Ditto fairhunt1.
I have One-Stop fitted boots with custom insoles and they are as comfortable as slippers.... well, as close to slippers as ski boots will ever be ..;-)
John and Pete do a fantastic job.
Another "thumbs up" for the Drunken Onion.
I don't know about Christmas dinner, but they are great for "homecooked food to take home and warm through" etc. Westie, this is a great way to "cook" in your condo without too much worry about the chall...
You are right - definitely the traditional choice (at least for well off families and probably those with farms etc), but probably not for the past 50+ years.
I must try it sometime :-)
Hi Simply Ski, I am a UK transplant as well, now living in Colorado. There really is no true Christmas dinner equivalent that we have come across in Colorado. Thanksgiving dinner is the closest we have found both in friends homes and eating out. W...
I believe that ONE STOP might also have a shuttle. If you're going to be going down there for a boot fitting they may even pick you up from your lodging. It would be worth a phone call to see.
Thank you everybody for your suggestions. I'll try the Drunken Onion, The Cabin and The Sheraton.
Sorry I wasn't a bit more explicit about what I meant by 'Traditional' - for me a Christmas dinner would be turkey (or goose maybe ;-) ), roast pota...

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.
Hard to predict of course but history is on your side. Be glad you didn't plan a trip around opening day at Vail today. They've got only one run open.
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...
