Four minutes from downtown, Steamboat’s world-class ski resort has long been known for its “Champagne PowderTM.” When snow falls in the Yampa Valley, it’s typically some of the lightest in the state due to Steamboat’s unique northwest Colorado location. With over 350 inches of snowfall each year, odds are you will have plenty of epic powder days.

The Steamboat Ski area was created, not with lots of outside influence and capital, but by local ranchers, mechanics, businessmen and other locals who gained a love for the sport of skiing that Carl Howelsen had shared from his home country of Norway. Today, Steamboat is considered a world-class resort and is owned and operated by intrawest, a world leader in destination resorts. Never far from its ranching roots, Steamboat remains firmly linked to a Western tradition that sets it apart from every other ski resort in the world.

The hassle of transporting your equipment is gone! A short ride to the mountain and your skis are waiting in your private ski locker located at the base of the mountain and steps from the gondola. Spacious, individual equipment lockers are equipped with state of the art boot dryers. Take your time and gear up and return when you’re cold and tired to warm up in the privacy of your own mountain club.
