Among the best resorts in the country

Again, this is a great family, friendly mountain where you can jump from one lift to another all day long and never pay attention to the map. Just spend your time, enjoying the mountain and avoiding lift lines.
Steamboat is the best family mountain in America by far. The sheer size of the mountain, amount of lifts, choice of gradients, opportunities for bailing out of aggressive, runs, and quality of the snow are stupendous!
If you really like steep expert terrain, only there’s only a few areas available and you really need to show up for those areas after enough snow has dropped.

I have skied for over 50 years and this is the only place I have walked away from after 2 runs. Crowded and the vast majority of the mountain was closed because of wind. Thank goodness I have the IKON pass and didn’t pay for lodging, parking or a day pass. Felt sorry for anyone there on vacation. Waste of money. And they don’t care.
Can’t think of any. Dislike it every time I ski here.
Crowds, poorly managed. On a windy day they shut it all down.

Have a young family (6, 8, and 18 y/o's) pretty low intermediate skiiers. Been to PC, Beaver Creek before.... Steamboat was easily the best all around family mountain we visited!
Family Friendly, Great Atmosphere, Awesome Night Skiing

Would like to have more beginner friendly trails

Jan 2–5, 2024. Conditions improved after snowstorms arrived in the region. On mountain lodges are poorly placed and base remains crowded despite second gondola installation. Excessive crowds at top, too, where Wild Blue, Sundown, and Sunshine unload. Snow conditions quickly skied off. Very limited terrain for experts. Chutes to East Face are only extreme challenge and for just a short portion at those runs. The mountain offers a full complement of intermediate experiences from groomers to moguls to glades.

I wish upper wild blue was working but they have plenty of snow
I love the great light snow
Upper wild blue doesn't work most of the time

Great resort with tracks for all levels
Nice tracks
Minimal steeps
A refreshing different vibe than the I-70 ski resorts.
Tree skiing, avoid traffic
Lacks steeps
