Happy New Year

SNOW: 1" (24 hrs); 10" (48 hrs); Base: 48"; Total: 166"
CONDITIONS: Powder/Packed Powder
LIFTS: 18/18
TRAILS: 158/165
TEMP: 14/-12 F


Finally! A perfect blue-bird day. All this snow has been amazing, but it is nice to see the sunshine. However, don't let the sunshine fool you. It is still very cold out. The temperature has been hovering close to zero for a few hours already. With 126 inches of snow in December, three and a half feet of that in the last week, these cold temperatures are sure to preserve some powder stashes for days to come. The Steamboat Ski Resort has it all today -- excellent groomers, challenging bumps, and powder in the trees.
