About Steamboat Colorado
Seven thousand feet up in the Colorado Rockies, nestled quietly below one of the largest ski mountains in North America, sits a small ranching community that serves as a constant reminder that the Old West is alive and well. Never far from its ranching roots, Steamboat remains firmly linked to a Western tradition that sets it apart from every other resort. Six peaks, nearly 3,000 acres of terrain and abundant Champagne Powder make Steamboat a premier destination.
Steamboat is known around the globe simply as Ski Town, U.S.A. and has produced more winter Olympians than any other town in North America, now a record 69 and counting. Including the 20 Steamboat athletes competing at the 2006 Games, Steamboat's Olympians have represented five different countries, and made 120 Olympic appearances during 16 Winter Games.
