The headline says it all! Two consecutive months of 100 inches means the skiing has to be pretty epic in Steamboat. Nearly four feet of powder feel in a seven day period last week at Steamboat resulting in conditions responsible for the photo to the right. "Ski Town, USA" is already reporting a base of over 90 inches with no sign of that number going down anytime soon. This is the fourth time in recent history that Steamboat has recorded two consecutive months with over 100 inches. The years this occurred were 2008/09, 2007/08, 1996/97 &1981/82.Here is an even crazier factoid: since the ski area opened on November 26, 2008, snow has fallen 44 out of 67 days (66%) with 28 of those days recording four or more inches. You may actually be praying for a sunny day with that much snowage, but you probably couldn't get many powder-hounds to admit that in public.
Steamboat also just released some great deals to go along with their great snow. Trappeurs Crossing is offering 1 Free night with a 3 night stay and 2 Free nights with a 6 night stay.
No friends on a powder day!
