Powderhounds: rejoice! Golfers: put away your clubs. Mountain bikers: put away your wheels. Winter has returned to Steamboat Springs with a vengeance to deliver one of the best powder days of the season. Personally, today would officially fit snugly in my top 10 ski days ever!
15 inches of text book Champagne Powder® snow fell on the Steamboat Ski Resort overnight, after a warm bluebird day in Steamboat. That's right - the snow all fell after the last chair came to rest yesterday. Better yet, Spring Break for the majority of the country has ended and Steamboat is blissfully quiet. That means there's plenty of freshies to go around!
The 'groomed' runs had well over a foot of light n' fluffy snow ensuring the smoothest skiing imaginable. And the tree skiing... A few turns in Steamboat's tree runs today prove why we are officially renowned for having the best tree skiing. Period.
Can you remember a time when you had a really delicious meal with friends and family? A meal so delicious that everyone is very quite, albeit the occasional "mmm"and expressions of gratitude to the chef? That's what skiing in Steamboat was like today. It was so peaceful and quiet as everyone floated through the powder, with only the occasional "Yeeeee Haaaaaw" to break you away from your mesmerizing turns.
...and it's still snowing!
There's still time to book a Steamboat ski vacation. Take advantage of some of the best lodging and lift deals ever!

Envy comes easily when you read of Steamboat's last Winter hurrah. I am stuck inside in hot humid raining cyclonic weather in Australia - if I could be beamed up Scotty, Steamboat is where I would want to be dropped. Enjoy it for all of us!
