Storm
Peak Area
Take Storm Peak Express Chair to the reach the summit of the
Steamboat Ski Resort. If you thought the views were good at the
Gondola, then you'll be amazed at the top. From dipping and twisting
blue runs, to epic tree skiing, to fun groomers you'll find a
favorite run for everyone. From the top of the mountain you'll be
able to ski over to Sundowner and Sunshine area or ski into the more
expert terrain of Morningside.
Sunshine Peak Area
These rolling soft runs are some the favorite areas for beginners,
families and kids! Wind in and out of these beautiful runs that
offer greens, blues and even the occasional black run. Take the
Sunshine express lift and find yourself right back at the top of the
mountain with access to all the Storm Peak runs.
Thunderhead Peak Area
Take the Gondola to the Thunderhead Peak where you will have access
to the upper mountain or ski over to Sundown Lift. Head down to
Thunderhead Ski Lift which accesses the more northerly side of the
ski resort with the lift dropping you off at the same peak as the
gondola. There is on-mountain dining options, mountain information
and group meeting areas in the Gondola building.
Pioneer Ridge Area
This area is for skiers and boarders looking for a challenge with
most of the runs being blue and blacks. Take the Pony Express lift
to access fun fast runs with lots of tree skiing.
Christy Peak Area
Take the Christy Peak lift from the base of the ski resort. Right
next to the Steamboat gondola and ride it to the midway point on the
mountain. This lift is perfect for beginners or families who want to
get in some of the easier terrain that won't take you all the way to
the top of the mountain. There is also access to some of the black
diamond runs that lie on the front of the mountain.

Mount Werner Area
This area is for experts only with a small hike after taking
Morningside lift to the top of Mount Werner. Enjoy these extra
steep, forested runs that will offer spectacular views and get your
heart pumping.
Mavericks Superpipe and Terrain Park
Skiers and riders agree Steamboat has the pipe and park to reckon
with. Steamboat's terrain park, serviced exclusively by its own
chairlift, offers 11.8 acres of terrain for all ability levels. This
terrain park, adjacent to Mavericks superpipe, features an outdoor
sound system and a variety of rails: kinked, sliders, rainbows,
"S’s", mailboxes, and double barrels. Mini-Mav, a miniature version
of the superpipe with five-foot walls, is perfect for novice riders.

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS ACTIVITIES
Off the mountain, spoil yourself in the quaint western, cowboy town
of Steamboat. Friendly locals run fabulous restaurants, shops, &
bars & public buses run between the town & the ski area. Rest your
weary bones in the natural hot springs of Strawberry Park, or take a
sleigh ride, experience tubing, or rent a snowmobile for the day
and take a run through Rabbit Ears Pass. All the FSC activities are

Runs, Complimentary Mountain Tours, First Tracks, Race Clinic for
$50, Après ski get together, Welcome Party with Silent Auction &
