Steamboat Ski Resort in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, will continue the winter fun into late April, the resort announced on their website and social media. With the new closing date of April 21, skiers and snowboarders will get to enjoy Steamboat’s unforgettable year in terms of snow for an extra few weeks. As a result, Ikon Pass is offering the April Unlimited Pass at $499 for adults, to shred the final three weeks of the season.
OpenSnow reports that approximately 282 inches of snow has fallen in Steamboat since October 1, 2023, and currently has a base depth of 109 inches. Moreover, Steamboat has accumulated 17 inches in the past five days as of February 22. Compared to other Colorado ski resorts, Steamboat has been having the best season by far in terms of snowfall. Therefore, it is no surprise the ski season has been extended for a second straight year.
Steamboat Resort completed a big project this season for guests to enjoy. The Wild Blue Gondola, which had its midway station premier in December 2022, fully opened this past December and takes skiers and snowboarders to the summit of Sunshine Peak in just under 15 minutes. From there, skiers and snowboarders have the whole resort in their hands to choose from and shred Steamboat’s Champagne Powder® snow.
The snowfall does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon for Steamboat, so plan those trips for some time in the last few months of the season to enjoy all that Steamboat has to offer.
