Steamboat Ski Resort
As it was said long ago "Go West Skiers, Go West!" This year our western destination is Steamboat, Colorado. Staying at the Ranch at Steamboat leaves just a short shuttle ride to the base area. Often called Ski Town, USA, Steamboat has all the amenities that you would be looking for to fill a week. For your ski days, Steamboat offers 2,965 acres with 165 trails. If you are looking for the longest run of the day, try Why Not (over 3 miles long). When you are done skiing for the day, venture into town and visit the cafes, shops, restaurants or take time to relax at one of the local hot springs.
