The Luck of Springtime in the ‘Boat

Friday, March 17th, 2017

The Irish are not the only ones who get to feel lucky. Spending a springtime vacation in Steamboat Springs will make you feel blessed, and here 10 reasons why.

  1. Skiing or boarding on the fresh groomers in the morning and soft snow in the afternoon sun. (Although an impending storm is going to add a fresh layer of powder to the mix next week).
  1. Rockin’ out at to a free concert at the base area with Bud Light Rocks the ‘Boat series.
  1. Slopeside’s Ice Bar – après ski just got cooler.
  1. Soaking in thermal waters at the Strawberry Park Hot Springs – one of 19 mineral springs on the Historic Hot Springs Tour through Colorado.
  1. Cross-country skiing in a t-shirt and refueling with a picnic on Rabbit Ears Pass. (Pick up a to go from Backcountry Provisions but be warned, you might need a nap, it’s so good).
  1. Gear sales have started in town and on the mountain so there’s plenty of bargains to snag.
  1. Snowshoeing and hiking at Fish Creek Falls where the ice is beginning to melt. When it does, you can’t hear yourself think for the roar.
  1. Sipping suds at the four local breweries dotted around town.
  1. Road biking past miles of rolling ranch lands.
  1. Taking an early morning hot air balloon ride as the valley below awakens.
