Steamboat Gears Up For Opening - Snow Making Underway

With about three weeks until opening day at Steamboat the snow making crews have started to pump out the man made snow which will supplement the forty some inches the resort area has already gotten since the first snow flew in September. This year Steamboat will offer skiers and snowboarders a new high speed quad chair lift that will serve Sunshine Bowl.

Other mountain upgrades for the new ski and snowboard season include improvements to the on mountain restaurants and cafes. Steamboat had a incredibly snowy season last year, in fact the newest Warren Miller movie features Steamboat for about 5 or 10 minutes as some of the best skiers and snowboarders enjoy the deep champagne powder that locals have grown to love.

If your planning a ski trip this year to Steamboat making your reservation now will save you some cash. Like so many other ski areas Steamboat offers “early booking specials” that can save as much as 30% off a ski package.
