The New Year is Finally Here!
With the start of 2022, we begin to set our intentions and goals for the new year. Holiday gatherings with family, friends and loved ones were memorable and fun, especially since last year was strange and different and we may not have all been able to connect. We really cherished the hugs and dinners and drinks with our families this year. Here in Steamboat, we are getting up on the mountain and enjoying all of the recent snow! We have been gearing up the kids and ourselves for some outdoor fun and much-needed leg stretching and taking in the fresh Rocky Mountain air. It looks to be a rocking 2022 ski season which has us all over the moon with excitement. We hope to see you on the slopes and share some turns with you soon!
The Bud Light Cowboy Downhill Returns January 17, 2022
Mark your calendars for Monday, January 17, 2022 (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day) as the Cowboy Downhill returns to the slopes of the Steamboat Ski Area for a 47th year!
Ever wanted to watch 100 of the best professional rodeo cowboys and cowgirls skiing down the slopes in their full-on cowperson attire? Well, free beer to all cowperson participants starts the race off on the right foot and it literally is all downhill from there. This race is a true Steamboat tradition and its events like these that make Steamboat unique. Did we mention that the cowboys and cowgirls also get free beer after the race as well? It is sponsored by Bud Light after all!
The Cowboy Downhill represents fun, excitement, and danger all from the comfort of your ski boots as you enjoy your front-row seat at the base of the mountain. Wanna see what else is going on this month? Here are some more great things going on in our community for the start of the new year.
