Finally! A Steamboat Powder Day...20+ inches! April 7, 2010

I think yesterday was the first day all season that it actually snowed in Steamboat all day and all night to bring us this, better late then never, double-digit powder day. We had over 20 inches of sweet powder and I think every local in town was out ripping the long awaited powder that, up until this point, seemed to come in small amounts all year long.

They finally opened up Morningside about 10:30 and I got to catch a lift with Seth Warner. He's on his 26th day of 30 resorts in 30 days. Seth gave Steamboat some props by saying, "this is the best snow I've had on the tour so far." Check out his website and blog at http://www.30resorts30days.com/

With the Steamboat ski area closing on Sunday, this storm came just in time! So get up here for some of the best snow ever on closing weekend! With the Springalicious 4-pack for $99 and $99/night lodging at select ResortQuest properties.

Check out the video below of the sweet pow-pow:
