Billy Kidd, director of Skiing for the Steamboat Ski and Resort Corporation tells us about Opening Day in Steamboat. 6 Lifts, 72 Trails, 3,000 Vertical Feet & More Than 1,000 Acres!! A series of storms have blanketed the mountain with more than 5 feet of powder this month and nearly 7 feet of snow since October 23rd at Thunderhead, the resort's mid-mountain location at 9,080 feet. Steamboat is currently reporting a remarkable 33-inch base at mid-mountain and 49-inch base at the summit, the largest base amounts ever seen for an opening day. Steamboat is under a blizzard warning until noon on Wednesday and forecasts are calling for additional snow, winds and colder temperatures through the next few days. The resort kicks off every season with Scholarship Day, the traditional opening day benefit for the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club's Scholarship Fund. This season skiers and riders will enjoy a $30 lift ticket or a $20 lower mountain lift ticket, which provides access on the Christie Peak Express only. All proceeds to to the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club to help provide support to aspiring winter athletes.
