Tooling around town in his old, mustard-yellow, Volvo station wagon and floppy leather hat, photographer Jim Steinberg is a familiar face in Steamboat Springs.

His iconic Colorado images, from golden round bales of hay to brilliant fields of wild-flowers, are even more well known. He travels the same roads we do, but he sees the scenery through an artist’s eye, and his camera captures memories that we treasure.

Since 1975, when Steinberg started his career in Steamboat, his audience has grown along with his subject matter, which has expanded to Colorado, the West and America. Today, Steinberg runs an international business from his classic Old Town log cabin. He travels the world, has published five books, more than 2,000 calendar images and articles in maga-zines ranging from Nature’s Best to The Wall Street Journal. Along the way, he has garnered environmental and photographic recognition.

After all of that, not only is the Volvo still

running, but Steinberg still loves coming home to Steamboat.

Steamboat Springs Visitors’ Guide: What do you love most about Steamboat?Jim Steinberg: The small town atmosphere and friendly people.

VG: What makes a perfect Steamboat summer day for you?J.S.: An early morning session photographing wildflowers, followed by a round of golf at Haymaker, or early morning golf and then making images of our fabulous summer storms.VG: What makes a perfect Steamboat winter day?J.S.: DEEP light powder to ski and photograph.

VG: What are your three favorite local things to photograph – and why? J.S.: 1) The Yampa River, one of Colorado’s last relatively free-flowing rivers. You can photograph its almost totally unfettered

state from the headwaters at Stillwater to the confluence with the Green at Echo Park without leaving the state. It offers everything from high alpine to desert terrain.2) The summer wildflowers, which are as varied as anywhere in the state and readily accessible. They offer great backgrounds for wonderful scenics.3) Dinosaur National Monument, with its high plateaus, deep canyons, billions of years of natural history and sense of remoteness.

VG: The hero shot – what’s a guaranteed souvenir image?J.S.: In summer, Fish Creek Falls during peak run-off or the Rabbit Ears with fields of wildflowers in the foreground. In winter, the mountain from downtown at sunset, particularly when there is alpenglow.

VG: Photographing Fish Creek Falls can be tricky. What’s your advice?

Welcome to Steamboat Springs! We are delighted you chose to visit Steamboat in the summertime, when the breathtaking green mountains, magnificent clear rivers and deep blue sky greet you in the Yampa Valley’s endless miles of serene beauty. Our charming town offers friendly Western hospitality combined with world-class amenities to make you feel right at home. From adrenaline adventures to kicking up your heels or relaxing under the sun, a variety of activities awaits individuals and families of all ages.

It’s all here, and this comprehensive Visitors’ Guide will be of excellent use. If you have any questions, our knowledgeable Visitor Center staff at 125 Anglers Dr. is more than happy to help you plan your visit.

Let the magic of summer unfold into a memorable vacation you’ll remember for a lifetime.

J.S.: The falls can indeed be difficult to fully capture. The light can be harsh with no side light and high contrast that blows out many of the details, so if possible wait for light cloud cover to soften the contrast. Also try a variety of shutter speeds: a high shutter speed to convey the power of the water and a low speed to create a soothing, smooth effect.

VG: What are your favorite Steamboat amenities?J.S.: Old Town Hot Springs, Perry-Mansfield Performing Arts Camp and the fabulous restaurants.

VG: What brought you to Steamboat…and what kept you here?J.S.: The friendly small town atmosphere and friends. With the opening of the Eisenhower Tunnel and then the jet service into Hayden, Steamboat is now so easy to get to from anywhere, why leave?

VG: You recently published a beautiful book about scenic byways. What are your favorite stops on our local one, the Flat Tops Scenic Byway, south of Steamboat?J.S.: Too numerous to mention in a short space, but I particularly love Vaughn Lake in the spring and Ripple Creek Pass for photog-raphy, picnics and easy access to the Flat Tops Wilderness.

VG: Describe some of your favorite things about the local art scene?J.S.: The large number of artists working in so many varied media congregated in such a compact area.

VG: Any inside scoop about summer in Steamboat? J.S.: The days are long with lots of light and more to do than there is time, so be sure to prioritize your activities, and have a Plan B in case of rain. Drink lots of water, use sunscreen plentifully and carry raingear. And do not miss the Steamboat Springs Pro Rodeo Series or the performances at Perry-Mansfield, including the New Works Festival, theater, musical theater and An Evening of Dance.

Pioneer Ridge has the perfect selection of private homes and unique condominiums for your next vacation to Steamboat Springs. Relax in a

studio apartment or indulge in one of our Platinum Collection properties.

1 | Tread of Pioneers Museum | 800 Oak St.Constructed by Ernest Campbell in 1908, this was home to the Zimmerman family from 1913 to 1956. In 1959, the Tread of Pioneers Museum opened in this building. The Queen Anne-style house was once located at Fifth and Oak streets, and was moved to this location in 1988. The adjoining Utterback House ● was moved to the site in 1997 from its original location at Fourth and Oak. The museum is open Tuesday-Saturday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.

2 | Giamboni House | 646 Oak St.Camillo Giamboni built this structure in 1889. Hidden under the siding is the original log building. This was home to Swiss brothers Henry and Camillo Giamboni, who were the first to make skis commercially in Steamboat.

3 | Christian Science Church | Seventh & Oak ●●Margaret Crawford, Steamboat’s pioneer mother, was a charter member of the town’s Christian Science Society, organized in July 1908. The log building, which continues to house the Christian Science Church, was completed in November 1934.

7 | Pioneer Building | 700 block of Lincoln Ave. ●●The Pioneer Building was in continuous use as a hotel from 1923 until 1979. In its heyday, the upstairs rooms were run as a classic Western boarding house and the downstairs housed the colorful Pioneer Bar.

8 | First National Bank/Rehder Building | Eighth & Lincoln (Steamboat Art Museum) ●●The First National Bank of Steamboat Springs, chartered in 1902, occupied a small frame structure on this site until the present building was constructed in 1905.

10 | Howelsen Hill | Seen from Ninth and Lincoln ●●Rising up steeply from the south side of the Yampa River, this section of Emerald Mountain is named for Norwegian ski jumper Carl Howelsen, the “Flying Norseman” of Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. Carl arrived in Steamboat in 1913 and introduced the townspeople to ski jumping and recreational skiing. By the 1930s, Howelsen Hill facilities included slalom and downhill courses and a “boat tow” consisting of two sleds pulled up the mountain by a cable powered by a Model T engine and transmission. In 1947, a combination chair/T-bar lift to the top of Emerald Mountain was installed and was one of the longest lifts in the U.S. at that time. A 90-meter jump was installed by 1950. Howelsen Hill is the only ski area in Colorado listed on the Colorado State Register of Historic Places.

11 | Harwig’s Saddlery | 911 Lincoln Ave. (Harwig’s & L’Apogée)Built in the 1890s, this was originally a drug store, then a meat market. In 1916 it became Harwig’s Saddlery and Western Wear, which was run by the Harwig family until 1984. The historic cowboy sign over the storefront was painted in the 1950s or 1960s by noted Western artist Merrill Mahaffey.

12 | The Old Pilot Building | 1009 Lincoln Ave. James Hoyle began Northwest Colorado’s first newspaper, The Steamboat Pilot, on July 31, 1885. This brick and stone building was constructed in fall 1909 for the newspaper printing office, which occupied the building until 1999.

13 | Steamboat Laundry Building | 11th and Oak (Giovanni’s & Creekside Café) ●●Built over a 10-year period starting in 1910, this two-story brick and river rock structure was constructed for the Steamboat Laundry, Dry Cleaning and Pressing business.

14 | Carver Power Plant ● | Tenth Street between Lincoln and Oak (Centennial Hall)In 1900, a coal-powered plant was devised to make Steamboat Springs the first town in Northwest Colorado to provide its residents with electricity. The steam, a by-product of the system used to create electricity, was used to heat nearby schools and residences. This building was rehabilitated to house city hall.

15 | Lorenz Building | 928 Lincoln Ave.This building was completed in 1893 and was originally a general store. In 1912, it became the courthouse when the county seat relocated from Hahn’s Peak. After 1921, the courtroom occupied the second floor, while the clerk, treasurer and jail shared the ground floor. When the present-day courthouse was completed in 1923, the building became the site of a dance hall called the Social Benefit Association or SBA.

16 | Hugus Building/Thiesen Mall | 912 Lincoln Ave. (Steamboat Smokehouse)Built in 1890, this was the site of J.W. Hugus & Co., one of the nation’s first general store chains. It sold farm equipment, furniture, stoves, feed and gasoline in barrels, among other items, in a facility equipped with electric lights, cash carriers and other labor-saving devices. The store housed Steamboat’s first telephone.

17 | Maxwell/Squire Building ●● | 840 Lincoln Ave.(Lyon Drug Store)Once known as the Maxwell Building, this structure was built by J.D. Maxwell of local pressed brick from Trogler’s brickyard, stone trim and plate glass. A post office occupied a room on the ground floor from 1909 to 1962. In 1920, Chamberlain-Grey Drug Store was the first drug store to occupy this site.

18 | F.M. Light & Sons | 830 Lincoln Ave.The F.M. Light family moved from Hicksville, Ohio, to Steamboat in 1905. Soon after their arrival, they purchased the lot, erected the building and secured enough merchandise to open this clothing store. Light family members traveled throughout Northwest Colorado and southern Wyoming, displaying their merchandise and taking orders from ranchers for Western wear, hats, boots, saddles and equipment. The retail store is still owned by family members.

19 | The Furlong Building | 810 Lincoln Ave. (Bushwacker’s)This building was erected in the 1920s using stone from the Emerald Mountain quarry to frame the windows. Norwegian ski jumper Carl Howelsen completed the brickwork and masonry.

20 | The Routt County National Bank Building ●● 802 Lincoln Ave. (Wild Horse Gallery)Built in 1918 with stonework by Carl Howelsen, this building is a unique landmark of two different periods. The Lincoln Avenue façade shows the rehabilitated 1918 exterior, and the Eighth Street side displays the changes from the 1940s.

Extended Tour

A. and B. Crawford Houses ●●1238 and 1184 Crawford Ave.The second and third houses built by the Crawfords are still standing. The second home, at 1238 Crawford Ave. (on 12th Street), was built in 1886 from native lumber from the Suttle Mill. The bay window was added later to accommodate their daughter’s wedding reception. The large stone house at 1184 Crawford Ave.●● was built in 1894 of stone from the Emerald Mountain quarry. The family occupied this house until Mrs. Crawford’s death in 1939, and have recently moved in again.

C. Cabin Hotel/Bud Werner Memorial Library1289 Lincoln Ave.The Cabin Hotel was built on this site in 1909 to serve passengers coming to Steamboat by train. It was one of the most luxurious hotels in the country and the largest in Northwest Colorado. In 1939, it burned to the ground in less than one hour, claiming two lives.

D. The Depot ●●1001 13th St.Designed by famous Denver architect Frank E. Edbrooke, the Depot was completed in 1909, shortly after the Moffat Line reached Steamboat in December 1908. During the early 1910s, Steamboat was the largest cattle-shipping center in the country. The train provided passenger service until 1968. The Depot now houses the Steamboat Springs Arts Council and the Eleanor Bliss Center for the Arts.

Bike


Mountain Bike the Steamboat Ski AreaGondola-assisted – or not. A few suggested rides:

• A quick ride that starts at the bottom of the ski area is Zig Zag to Yoo Hoo, or lower Valley View. There are some steady uphill sections and a short, fun switch-back downhill at the end of Yoo Hoo.

• If you have more time, stay on Zig Zag and head to the top of Thunderhead. From there, cyclists have lots of trail options for winding back down, including boarding the gondola if downhill bike rides aren’t your game.

• Riding up the gondola is also an option. From here, the easiest section is Duster, a dirt service road. You can even trail a child-carrier or tag-along on this path while enjoying the glorious view. This connects to harder single-track trails – or turn back after approximately two miles.

• The Elkhead Loop starts at the top of the gondola and is a short single-track ride with some up-and-down sections. This also connects with Moonlight, a single-track with switch-backs through beautiful aspen glades, which then connects to Valley View, a popular ride with awesome views offering a more difficult descent than Zig Zag. 970-879-6111 | www.steamboat.com

Mountain Bike on Howelsen Hill, Emerald Mountain & the Routt National ForestSteamboat is surrounded by mountain bike trails, including a brand-new one that traverses Emerald Mountain. More trail info on pages VG64-65.

Road BikeSeek out the county roads less traveled and make a loop out of town.

• Twenty Mile Road: Start at the Bud Werner Memorial Library and follow 13th Street, which turns into the newly paved Routt County Road 33. At the coal mine, turn left toward Oak Creek on Routt County Road 27. Return direct to Steamboat via Colorado 131, or make a scenic detour on Routt County Road 14, passing Stagecoach Reservoir. (50 miles with the detour)

• Emerald Mountain: Start at Bud Werner Memorial Library and follow 13th Street, which turns into the newly paved Routt County Road 33. Turn left on Routt County Road 43, then right onto Routt County Road 41, both well-maintained dirt roads. Turn left onto Routt County Road 35, which turns into Routt County Road 14, aka River Road, and head back to Steamboat Springs. (30 miles; 6 miles on dirt)

Rules Of The Trail

• Do not use trails when they are wet.

• Travel is permitted on open, designated trails only - Do not cut switchbacks.

• Always maintain control of your bicycle, horse, dogs on leash and yourself.

• Always yield the trail to other users – hikers yield to horses – bikers yield to hikers and horses - let others know you are coming.

• Downhill bicycle riders must yield to uphill traffic.

• Dogs must be on a six (6) foot hand held leash and owners are required to pick up and dispose of their dog’s waste.

• Equestrians should ride horses that are experienced with heavily used multi-use trails and they are required to disperse manure off of the trail tread.

• Please respect wildlife, the environment and other trail users.

• Leave no trace.

Mountain bike trails on Howelsen Hill traverse fields of wildflowers. Venture even higher up on Emerald Mountain for a 6.8-mile ride locals call the “Beall Trail,” the 4.3-mile Rotary Trail or the 4-mile Ridge Trail.

Bike Tips From The Pros

Maintenance tipsChris Katers keeps the bicycle wheels spinning at Steamboat Ski & Bike Kare.

• A good tune-up at the beginning of biking season can save lots of problems later. If you only take your bike to the shop once a year, this is it. The mechanic will check your tires, brakes, bearings, wheels, tire pres-sure, gear shift and suspension. • Less is more when it comes to cleaning your bicycle after a ride. Rinse it with trickling water – no

high-pressure hoses – and use a soft brush to remove mud. • When you hear a metal-to-metal squeaking sound, your chain needs lubricating. Apply a wax, oil or synthetic lubricant, then spin the wheel through its gears and wipe the excess off with a soft cloth. You can overlube a chain! • Before every ride, check your tire pressure. The recommended psi is on the side of the tire.

• Mid-season, get out your Allen wrenches and torque every bolt you see.

Tips for the commuterMurray Selleck has logged lots of miles commuting from his rural Routt County home to work at Ski Haus.

• Try commuting once or twice a week to start. Then, when you’ve figured out the logistics, add a day or two at a time until you’re riding four or five times a week. After awhile, you don’t mind going to work because you get to ride.

• Don’t choose your route based solely on the shortest distance between two points. Find trails or back roads that may add a little time but a ton of safety.

• A white front light and red flashing taillight are great defenses against potentially distracted drivers and wildlife.

• Ride with a bag like the Chrome Commuter Bag. It’s comfortable, rock-solid and holds a change of clothes, thermos, camera and rain gear. Or plan ahead and leave fresh clothes at the ofce.

• There’s no bad weather, just bad attitudes – EXCEPT for light-ning. If it’s all around you, get away from your bike, find a low spot, squat down on the balls of your feet and lift your heels, making yourself as small as possible.

Mountain bike tipsBrock Webster, who owns Orange Peel Bicycle Service, pedals to Emerald Mountain within moments: “You can’t beat the twisty, spider web network of trails up there to lose yourself quickly.”

• On a technical section of trail, be smooth. Enter with your feet level, elbows and knees bent, and arms loose. Prepare to absorb bumps and extend into compressions.

• Look ahead and concentrate on the line you need to take, not the scary obstacles in your path.

• Think of momentum as your friend. Going too slow is often a major cause of not clearing obstacles. Speed smoothes out the trail. Your wheels can roll over amazingly difficult looking things, if you have momentum.

• Avoid skidding the rear wheel, and practice utilizing the front brake as it actually offers more braking power.

• Always brake before a corner, drop-off, rock or other obstacle, then lay off the brakes when doing the move.

• Carry at least the bare essentials: inner tube, pump, tire levers.

Tips for racersKatie Lindquist is co-owner of Kent Eriksen Cycles and a two-time world champion 24-hour racer. She has won both the road and mountain bike world championships.

• For your first race, pick a small event. Take suggestions on the course and enjoy the camaraderie after the event.

• Start training now. Riding your bike is the best way to be fast. Focus each workout using online resources and books.

• Training is not the time to cut back on calories.

• You do not actually die from bonking or cramping. Keep moving.

• Make sure all the bike’s bolts and important parts are tightened adequately.

• Get quality bike shorts with a padded liner. Make sure your jersey has sleeves to protect your shoulders in a crash, and back pockets to carry tools, food or water. Eyewear is essential for sun and debris. Wear a helmet that fits and can be snugged up comfortably.


Run, Hike, Recuperate

Hit the trail. Then treat yourself with time to stretch and rejuvenate.

Steamboat Springs Running SeriesThe Steamboat Springs Running Series was named “Best Running Series” by Colorado Runner Magazine, and from May to September the road and trail races hit their stride for everyone from social joggers to hardy ultra-marathoners. Thirteen races include the Steamboat Marathon (Sunday, June 5, www.steamboatmarathon.com), the Howelsen Hill 8-Miler (Saturday, July 9), and the 10K at 10,000 feet (Sunday, Sept. 4). www.runningseries.com

Yoga & PilatesEvery good run deserves a great stretch. There’s ample opportunity for all levels of yogi in Steamboat. Try everything from restorative to vigorous flow sessions, plus Pilates mat and equipment classes. Walk-in classes are available daily. Find Steamboat’s yoga and Pilates studios listed on VG48.

Howelsen Hill and Emerald MountainEmerald Mountain rises behind downtown Steamboat. Saunter off main street for many levels of wilderness trails. Hikers, mountain-bikers, runners, horseback riders and dog-walkers share the inter-connecting trails that rise to approximately 8,000 feet behind Howelsen Hill. Routes depart from the Howelsen Hill sports complex near Fifth and Yampa streets. www.steamboatsprings.net

Steamboat Ski AreaIn the summer, ski runs make way for hiking and mountain biking trails. Zigzag to the top of Storm Peak, then enjoy the switchbacks on the downhill ride. Or ride the gondola halfway up or down. Plenty of loops, service roads and single tracks make the ski area accessible for all ages and abilities. 970-879-6111 | www.steamboat.com

BackcountrySteamboat is surrounded by Routt National Forest and three protected wilderness areas. A list of hiking highlights is on VG64-65.

Spring Creek The 6-mile (one-way) Spring Creek trail starts with a mellow climb and gradually grows steeper, narrower and more technical. Pick it up at the corner of Maple Street and Amethyst Drive in downtown Steamboat.

Spa The Utes fell in love with the Yampa Valley for its abundance of natural hot springs and the medicinal effects they possess. Today Steamboat’s spas and massage therapists add to the restorative effect. Find every kind of treatment you need to replenish your strength, stamina and flexibility before heading back out on the trail – or just spend a day off being pam-pered. Find a list of Steamboat spas on VG73.

Try the full Olympic-distance triathlon at Lake Catamount on Sunday, Aug. 28 (Steamboat Springs Triathlon, www.steamboattriath-lon.com). Or go for half-Olympic distance at Steamboat Lake on Sunday, July 24 (Steamboat Lake Sprint Triathlon, www.with-outlimits.co).

Sunset Happy HourOne of the best views over the valley is from the top of the gondola at the Steamboat Ski Area. Watch alpenglow take over the aspens as the sun dips below the horizon. Sunset happy hour on Fridays from June 24-July 22. 970-879-6111 | www.steamboat.com

GolfThe public Haymaker Golf Course (970-870-1846, www.haymakergolf.com), was designed to mimic the surrounding mountain contours.

Soar, slide, climb and always look down. The view matches the adrenaline.Hot Air Balloon The Yampa Valley is renowned as a balloon pilot’s dream with “box winds” that keep flights contained in a circular pattern over the open valley floor. Soaring at heights of up to 3,000 feet, hot air ballooning is one of the most cov-eted ways to see the local landscape. Peacefully floating in a basket above the Yampa Valley, it’s often hard to sense whether you are going up or down, as you can look straight down on the world below. 970-879-7219 | www.wildwestballooning.com

Alpine SlideThe 2,400-foot Howler Alpine Slide lets you turn faster than an Olympian as you zoom down Howelsen Hill driving your own sum-mer sled. Dual side-by-side tracks let you race through six 90° turns and eight 180° turns – and ticket sales benefit the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club. 970-871-1104 | www.steamboatalpineslide.com

Rock Climb Routt County has great beginner to inter-mediate rock climbing, where never-evers or those with indoor wall experience can enjoy the thrill and the view from several single-pitch or multi-pitch climbs near Steamboat. Rocky Mountain Ventures offers guided half-day and full-day trips to thrill-seekers ages 6 and up. Most climbs are “top rope,” meaning climbers are belayed by a guide from bolted anchors. 970- 870-8440 | www.verticalgrip.com

The Yampa River runs through the heart of Steamboat Springs. Test the waters while you fish, tube, kayak or swim – or simply stroll along the banks.

The Yampa River offers catch and release fishing for everyone.

Yampa River

TubeSteamboat’s tubing season starts in early July. As soon as spring runoff slows down, tube rentals begin with shuttle services for trips up and down the river. Grab an inner tube and take a cool float down the Yampa. See “Tubing” listings on page VG47 for tube rental shops.

Kayak Dip your paddle in spring whitewater or mellow mid-summer flow on the Yampa River. Backdoor Sports and Mountain Sports Kayak School rent boats and can teach you to paddle. Backdoor Sports 970- 879-6249 and Mountain Sports Kayak School 970-879-8794

Raft Whitewater raft the Yampa River through Steamboat in early summer or travel west to Cross Mountain with class IV and V rapids. The Elk River is a thrilling early season option; later the mighty Colorado runs all summer through canyons southwest of Steamboat. See “Boating” listings on page VG44 for river rafting outfitters.

Fly FishThe Yampa River is famous for fly fishing, and catch-and-release restrictions apply throughout town. There is free public access all along the river – but you need a fishing license ($9/day or $26/year for Colorado residents). Only artificial flies and lures are allowed, and all fish must be returned to the water. Kids will like fishing at Casey’s Pond (U.S. 40 and Walton Creek Road), where the water is still and the catches plentiful. Novice and diehard fishermen can find experienced local guides listed under “Fishing” on VG45.

SwimCool off on a hot summer day with a plunge into the Yampa River. Downtown swimming holes include the C-Hole behind the Bud Werner Memorial Library and the D-Hole just downstream – both have appealing sunny rocks for spectators. If a snowmelt swim leaves you chilled to the bone, stop at Rich Weiss Park and warm up in the runoff from Old Town Hot Springs.

Yampa River Core Trail Seven scenic miles of multi-use paved trails wind through downtown and along the Yampa River for walking, running, biking and easy river access. Dotted with sculptures and natural springs along the way, the Yampa River Core Trail accesses the Yampa River Botanic Park, Howelsen Hill, prime fishing holes, the rodeo grounds, the Depot, quiet neighborhoods and tranquil natural areas. An interpretive boardwalk winds through wetlands near Rotary Park and connects to the Core Trail. See map on pages VG6-VG7.

tubers float by, catch live music and enjoy a cocktail on the deck.

Rex’s Backyard Bar has been a local hot spot since it opened in the Holiday Inn. Happy hour starts at 4:20 p.m.; cavort with the locals who walk or bike there via the Walton Creek trail. Enjoy backyard games with live music Thursday-Saturday. Slopeside Bar and Grill is an iconic après ski destination right on the slopes that bustles in the summer with ample outdoor seating and late night drink and pizza specials.

Classic Oldies And GoodiesLooking to step foot into a Yampa Valley land-mark? At the mountain in Ski Time Square, check out the legendary Tugboat Grill & Pub, with live music and an old-time Steamboat atmosphere. If downtown is more your style, check out the Old Town Pub at Sixth Street and Lincoln Avenue. OTP is a local and visitor

favorite featuring live music, drink specials and Western atmosphere in a 1904 building that was once a hospital and dance hall. At the Steamboat Smokehouse, sip your beer from a icy goblet and throw your bottomless supply of peanut shells on the floor.

Downtown Pubs And Grub Once the county headquarters for cows, horses and hay, Lincoln Avenue has evolved into the social center of the Yampa Valley. While downtown, aka Old Town, check out the nightlife. On the main drag, the Cantina offers excellent people-watching on Lincoln Avenue and fresh margaritas to boot. The Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant serves infamous “limit 3” margaritas and laid-back ambiance on the rooftop patio. Just down the street is Steamboat’s only micro-brewery, Mahogany Ridge Brewery and Grill, which offers live music on weekends, happy-hour specials and an array of homemade beers on tap.

Step It Up For impressive wine lists, stop by Harwigs/ L’Apogée for its late night bar menu and live jazz piano on Friday nights. Cottonwood Grill offers an Asian fusion twist — and an extensive martini list — in an upscale atmo-sphere with views of Howelsen Hill and the Yampa River. Bistro C.V. has a serious wine list and a menu featuring local ingre-dients. Riggio’s Ristorante features Italian delicacies and happy hour specials. Café Diva’s wines are a perfect way to start or end an evening. At the mountain, saunter into Sevens in the Sheraton hotel lobby for drinks and a moonlit view over the ski area. And if you’re headed to Strings Music Festival, stop in at Three Peaks Grill for oysters to accompany your cocktail before the concert.

Late Night Eats, Treats And MusicFor live music, dancing and Western character, check out the Ghost Ranch Saloon, where a dance floor and stage feature live music almost every night, plus an 1893 Brunswick Bar and a walk-up food window, open until 2 a.m. Down the street, Bellas wine bar offers live music, DJs, antipasti and desserts in an edgy cellar atmosphere.

Where To Watch The Game: Steamboat Sports BarsIf a burger, fries and the game are more your style of late night relaxing, Steamboat boasts settings fit for a true sports fan. The Tap House is the Mecca of sports bars, a basement-level bar with more than 50 big-screen televisions, tons of game choices and famous wings.

Most of the lodging facilities available through Steamboat Central Reservations have been assigned quality ratings by an independent rat-ing service. Properties are first placed in price categories of Premium ($$$$), Expensive ($$$), Moderate ($$) or Economy ($) based on regu-lar season rates. A random sample of units/rooms from each property is then inspected and assigned a quality rating designation of Excellent (EX), Very Good (VG), Good (G) or Fair (F). Properties that are not part of Steamboat Central Reservations are not rated. The rating designation assigned represents the overall qual-ity of the furnishings, materials and mainte-nance. Properties are compared to one another within the same price categories. Standards of quality are Steamboat-based, although national standards are taken into consideration in order to form a baseline. Conditions of the property may have changed since the time of inspection.


General Information

ReservationsTo make State Park reservations outside of the Denver metro area, call 800-678-CAMP. In the Denver area call 303-470-1144. Reservations may be made 90 days in advance but no later than three days prior to arrival. In the Routt National Forest, reservations for Hahn’s Peak Lake Campground (open in fall 2011), Dumont Lake, Seedhouse Campground and the Seedhouse Group Site may be made from 120 days in advance to 4 days before arrival.

Cautionary Notes 1. Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. Check in

with them upon your return. 2. Weather changes rapidly in the mountains. Plan high elevation trips for the

morning hours. Afternoon thunderstorms with lightning are common. The threat is most significant along ridge lines, high points and open areas. Do

not seek shelter under trees. 3. Minimize your exposure to the sun. 4. Pace yourself and drink lots of water.5. High altitude sickness symptoms include: headache, dizziness, nausea and

weakness. Rest, proper hydration and descent to a lower elevation can help alleviate symptoms.

Off-Road MotorcyclingRoutt National Forest and Timberline Trailriders work together to maintain a network of trails for the use of off-road motorcycles. To date, Timberline Trailriders has received $250,000 in grants from the state trails program for the Routt National Forest system. The primary staging areas for off-road motorcycles are in North Routt County, Yampa and on the Walden district. Information and maps are available at Forest Service offices.

Mountain BikingThe local biking club is Routt County Riders: www.routtcountyriders.org. Maps are available on their website and at local bike shops.

Come Back Soon

Steamboat Springs is prepared to lure you back

for a dose of our irresistible winter. Here are a dozen

tempting reasons to return after the snow falls.

1 | Ski and ride in hundreds of inches of Champagne

Powder® snow.

2 | Soak and stay warm in natural hot springs while snowflakes

fall on your head.

3 | Boogie at the base of the slopes at mid-winter music

festivals and free spring concerts.

4 | Witness future Olympic greatness as young ski jumpers

fly at Howelsen Hill.

5 | Laugh ‘till you cry as you slide down a tubing hill.

6 | Ski like Johnny Spillane – or at least learn how at local Nordic skiing centers.

7 | Climb straight up a frozen waterfall – or snowshoe

around to the top.

8 | Hurtle through the powder at high speed. Your choice: dog sled or snowmobile?

9 | Play cowboy on a snowy horseback ride or a

horse-drawn sleigh ride.

10 | Saunter around a real Western downtown bustling

under a blanket of snow – home to the oldest Winter Carnival

west of the Mississippi.

11 | Sink into luxurious off-slope relaxation with spas, yoga

studios, galleries and more.

12 | Revel in sunshine, soft snow, blue skies and Springalicious

festivities…before summer arrives again.

Steamboat received over 400 inches of snow last winter.
