Improvements for this Season
Over the past four seasons, $30 million in on-mountain improvements have been made to the Steamboat Ski Area, including $2.5 million invested specifically for the upcoming 2009/10 winter season. Steamboat’s on-mountain momentum augments nearly $20 million in completed and planned public revitalization projects sweeping the mountain village. Building upon last year’s on-mountain capital expenditures, the majority of the 2000/10 season improvements target an expanded Kids’ Vacation Center, new Ski & Snowboard School ticket office and snowmaking.
