"This season asked a lot from all of us. With the warmest winter and lowest snowpack on record, there were real challenges. But what stands out the most isn't that. It's the strength of this community and the spirit of this team."
"As of today, Steamboat has just 12% of its terrain open and has seen 155 inches of snow this season, approximately 39% of its 400″ average, and a 16″ snowpack, 38% of average."
"Despite the shortened run, Steamboat plans to close on a festive note. The resort will host the Splashdown Pond Skim at Rendezvous Lodge at 11 a.m. on Sunday, April 5."
