skiing: Steamboat Springs surpasses 400 inches of snow! - 03/04/08 03:25 AM
If you haven't skied Steamboat this year, you have missed one special season. Only the 6th time since the 1979/1980 season that we've broken the 400-inch mark. The largest benchmark of this ski season? Folks, we had 100 inches of Champagne powder fall three months in a row! The powder riding has been surreal...like floating on clouds...echoes of "yeehaws" and "woohoos" emanating from stash pirates all over the mountain. Skiers and riders exhausted from morning after morning dragging aching muscles back for more. Mountain men are growing beards to stave off the freeze of face shots in chest deep powder. We … (0 comments)

skiing: Here comes the sun! - 02/22/08 04:20 AM
Ah, what beautiful weather this week! After weeks of amazing Champagne powder snowfall ~ nearly 30 feet of it ~ the sun has been peeking out! We've had 3 afternoons that turned into true "bluebirds" with sunscreen required on the slopes. The groomers are delightful...the snow is soft and trails are uncrowded. Perfect for lap after lap of graceful skiing in the sunshine. Its cold at night keeping our snow happy, and warming during the day enough to wear a lighter ski jacket. Truly a wonderful time to take a some afternoons off for playing on the mountain.In addition, I've been … (0 comments)
