About the Mountain
Steamboat is actually a complete mountain range: Mount Werner, Sunshine Peak, Storm Peak, Thunderhead Peak, Pioneer Ridge® and Christie Peak. 2,939 acres (1176 hectares) of permitted terrain offer a diversity of trails for all levels of ability. Mavericks Superpipe, the longest on the continent, is a freerider’s dream. Mavericks is 650 feet long, 50-feet wide, has 15 foot walls, and a 17 foot radius. Steamboat’s SoBe terrain park adjacent to Mavericks, features an outdoor sound system, a variety of rails; kinked, sliders, rainbows, "S", mailboxes, double barrel, and Mini-Mav, a miniature version of the superpipe with five-foot walls, perfect for novice riders. Gladed areas of Pioneer Ridge, Sunshine and Storm Peak are Steamboat’s particular claim to fame, with Champagne Powder® snow in the trees for the most avid powder hounds.

Condos have full kitchens, fireplaces, balconies, two bedrooms, and cable TV. We will be staying in 2BR condos with 4 people per condo. If you're a couple (or really like each other) you can share the king bed in the master bedroom. Otherwise there is also a queen sofa pull-out bed in the living room. If you want the master bedroom all to yourself, please sign up under the "single occupancy" event (higher price).
Kids are welcome but if you're bringing kids, you'll likely share a condo with someone else bringing kids. Also, kids cost the same as adults - i.e. need 4 people paying the regular rate per condo (Exception: kids 5 & under ski for free)
