Changes Underway at Steamboat Resort
Posted by Kim FillerAfter years of planning for a major overhaul of the base area at Steamboat Resort, the wait is over. Construction crews have moved in and demolition has begun. This first phase kicks off a three-year $135 million redevelopment plan that will see changes both on and off the mountain.
The gondola and ski school buildings have been torn down and grading work is underway. Among the initial changes is the relocation of the Gondola base terminal which will be a standalone entity. This summer, escalators will be installed as part of a new Gold Walk, to connect the transit center to the base area.
Grading work will be done in the Bashor area to make way for Greenhorn Ranch, a new learning center scheduled to open for winter 2022/23. Among other plans is an apres ski plaza with an ice rink, 550 acres of new terrain and the Wild Blue Gondola.
