It’s all here, and this comprehensive Visitors’ Guide will be of excellent use. If you have any questions, our knowledgeable Visitor Center staff at 125 Anglers Dr. is more than happy to help you plan your visit.

Kyleigh DeMicco Director of Visitor Services Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association

Welcomes you to Steamboat Springs!

Balloons rise over the Yampa Valley during the Hot Air Balloon Rodeo.

Tooling around town in his old, mustardyellow, Volvo station wagon and floppy leather hat, photographer Jim Steinberg is a familiar face in Steamboat Springs.

His iconic Colorado images, from golden round bales of hay to brilliant fields of wildflowers, are even more well known. He travels the same roads we do, but he sees the scenery through an artist’s eye, and his camera captures memories that we treasure.

Since 1975, when Steinberg started his career in Steamboat, his audience has grown along with his subject matter, which has expanded to Colorado, the West and America. Today, Steinberg runs an international business from his classic Old Town log cabin. He travels the world, has published five books, more than 2,000 calendar images and articles in magazines ranging from Nature’s Best to The Wall Street Journal. Along the way, he has garnered environmental and photographic recognition.

After all of that, not only is the Volvo still VG 2 | ONL INe AT WWW.ST eAm BOA TC HA mBe r.C Om

running, but Steinberg still loves coming home to Steamboat.

Steamboat Springs Visitors’ Guide: What do you love most about Steamboat?

Jim Steinberg: The small town atmosphere and friendly people.

VG: What makes a perfect Steamboat summer day for you?

J.S.: An early morning session photographing wildflowers, followed by a round of golf at Haymaker, or early morning golf and then making images of our fabulous summer storms.

VG: What makes a perfect Steamboat winter day?

J.S.: DEEP light powder to ski and photograph.

VG: What are your three favorite local things to photograph – and why?

J.S.: 1) The Yampa River, one of Colorado’s last relatively free-flowing rivers. You can photograph its almost totally unfettered

state from the headwaters at Stillwater to the confluence with the Green at Echo Park without leaving the state. It offers everything from high alpine to desert terrain.

2) The summer wildflowers, which are as varied as anywhere in the state and readily accessible.

They offer great backgrounds for wonderful scenics.

3) Dinosaur National Monument, with its high plateaus, deep canyons, billions of years of natural history and sense of remoteness.

VG: The hero shot – what’s a guaranteed souvenir image?

J.S.: In summer, Fish Creek Falls during peak run-off or the Rabbit Ears with fields of wildflowers in the foreground. In winter, the mountain from downtown at sunset, particularly when there is alpenglow.

VG: Photographing Fish Creek Falls can be tricky. What’s your advice?

Deborah Olsen

Photographer Jim Steinberg J.S.: The falls can indeed be difficult to fully capture. The light can be harsh with no side light and high contrast that blows out many of the details, so if possible wait for light cloud cover to soften the contrast. Also try a variety of shutter speeds: a high shutter speed to convey the power of the water and a low speed to create a soothing, smooth effect.

Pioneer Ridge has the perfect selection of private homes and unique condominiums for your next vacation to Steamboat Springs. Relax in a studio apartment or indulge in one of our Platinum Collection properties.

VG: What are your favorite Steamboat amenities?

J.S.: Old Town Hot Springs, Perry-Mansfield Performing Arts Camp and the fabulous restaurants.

VG: What brought you to Steamboat‌and what kept you here?

J.S.: The friendly small town atmosphere and friends. With the opening of the Eisenhower Tunnel and then the jet service into Hayden, Steamboat is now so easy to get to from anywhere, why leave?

VG: You recently published a beautiful book about scenic byways. What are your favorite stops on our local one, the Flat Tops Scenic Byway, south of Steamboat?

J.S.: Too numerous to mention in a short space, but I particularly love Vaughn Lake in the spring and Ripple Creek Pass for photography, picnics and easy access to the Flat Tops Wilderness.

www.Steamboat-Springs.com

675 Snapdragon Way Suite 100, Steamboat Springs, CO 80487

VG: Describe some of your favorite things about the local art scene?

J.S.: The large number of artists working in so many varied media congregated in such a compact area.

VG: Any inside scoop about summer in Steamboat?

J.S.: The days are long with lots of light and more to do than there is time, so be sure to prioritize your activities, and have a Plan B in case of rain. Drink lots of water, use sunscreen plentifully and carry raingear. And do not miss the Steamboat Springs Pro Rodeo Series or the performances at Perry-Mansfield, including the New Works Festival, theater, musical theater and An Evening of Dance.

Walking Tour Walk back in time and discover historic Steamboat Springs.

A stroll through downtown reveals buildings dating back to the late 1800s and nine of the area’s more than 150 mineral springs.

Compiled with the help of the Tread of Pioneers Museum and Historic Routt County, the tour takes one to two hours.

Parking is available in city lots and on the street. Please note two-hour parking limit signs.

● Listed on Routt County Register of Historic Properties ● Listed on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties ● Listed on the National Register of Historic Places 1 | Tread of Pioneers Museum | 800 Oak St. Constructed by Ernest Campbell in 1908, this was home to the Zimmerman family from 1913 to 1956. In 1959, the Tread of Pioneers Museum opened in this building. The Queen Anne-style house was once located at Fifth and Oak streets, and was moved to this location in 1988. The adjoining Utterback House ● was moved to the site in 1997 from its original location at Fourth and Oak. The museum is open Tuesday-Saturday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.

Sept. 9, 1922. Designed by noted Colorado architect Robert Fuller, the three-story building was completed in December 1923 at a cost of $122,000.

6 | The Old Town Pub | 600 Lincoln Ave. Built in 1904 by Ernest Campbell, this structure was originally the Albany Hotel. From 1914-1921, the building was a hospital run by Dr. F.E. Willett. After the hospital relocated, the second floor became the popular Odd Fellows dance hall. The first floor served as a grocery, post office, electric store and public library from 1924 to 1967.

2 | Giamboni House | 646 Oak St. Camillo Giamboni built this structure in 1889. Hidden under the siding is the original log building. This was home to Swiss brothers Henry and Camillo Giamboni, who were the first to make skis commercially in Steamboat.

7 | Pioneer Building | 700 block of Lincoln Ave. ●● The Pioneer Building was in continuous use as a hotel from 1923 until 1979. In its heyday, the upstairs rooms were run as a classic Western boarding house and the downstairs housed the colorful Pioneer Bar.

3 | Christian Science Church | Seventh & Oak ●● Margaret Crawford, Steamboat’s pioneer mother, was a charter member of the town’s Christian Science Society, organized in July 1908. The log building, which continues to house the Christian Science Church, was completed in November 1934.

8 | First National Bank/Rehder Building | Eighth & Lincoln (Steamboat Art Museum) ●● The First National Bank of Steamboat Springs, chartered in 1902, occupied a small frame structure on this site until the present building was constructed in 1905. Dakota sandstone from Emerald Mountain and handmade bricks from Trogler’s local brickyard were used in the construction.

4 | Willett House | 443 Oak St. Doc Willett came to Steamboat from Laramie, Wyo., in 1912 and took ownership of this house following World War I. The well-known doctor made house calls in a bearskin coat.

Indian chief who came to Steamboat after making a fortune mining lead, zinc and silver in Oklahoma. The Chief was Steamboat’s first theater equipped for “talkies.”

10 | Howelsen Hill | Seen from Ninth and Lincoln ●● Rising up steeply from the south side of the Yampa River, this section of Emerald Mountain is named for Norwegian ski jumper Carl Howelsen, the “Flying Norseman” of Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. Carl arrived in Steamboat in 1913 and introduced the townspeople to ski jumping and recreational skiing. By the 1930s, Howelsen Hill facilities included slalom and downhill courses and a “boat tow” consisting of two sleds pulled up the mountain by a cable powered by a Model T engine and transmission. In 1947, a combination chair/T-bar lift to the top of Emerald Mountain was installed and was one of the longest lifts in the U.S. at that time. A 90-meter jump was installed by 1950. Howelsen Hill is the only ski area in Colorado listed on the Colorado State Register of Historic Places.

11 | Harwig’s Saddlery | 911 Lincoln Ave. (Harwig’s & L’Apogée) Built in the 1890s, this was originally a drug store, then a meat market. In 1916 it became Harwig’s Saddlery and Western Wear, which was run by the Harwig family until 1984. The historic cowboy sign over the storefront was painted in the 1950s or 1960s by noted Western artist Merrill Mahaffey.

12 | The Old Pilot Building | 1009 Lincoln Ave. James Hoyle began Northwest Colorado’s first newspaper, The Steamboat Pilot, on July 31, 1885. This brick and stone building was constructed in fall 1909 for the newspaper printing office, which occupied the building until 1999.

13 | Steamboat Laundry Building | 11th and Oak (Giovanni’s & Creekside Café) ●● Built over a 10-year period starting in 1910, this two-story brick and river rock structure was constructed for the Steamboat Laundry, Dry Cleaning and Pressing business.

14 | Carver Power Plant ● | Tenth Street between Lincoln and Oak (Centennial Hall) In 1900, a coal-powered plant was devised to make Steamboat Springs the first town in Northwest Colorado to provide its residents with electricity. The steam, a by-product of the system used to create electricity, was used to heat nearby schools and residences. This building was rehabilitated to house city hall.

15 | Lorenz Building | 928 Lincoln Ave. This building was completed in 1893 and was originally a general store. In 1912, it became the courthouse when the county seat relocated from Hahn’s Peak. After 1921, the courtroom occupied the second floor, while the clerk, treasurer and jail shared the ground floor. When the present-day courthouse was completed in 1923, the building became the site of a dance hall called the Social Benefit Association or SBA. 16 | Hugus Building/Thiesen Mall | 912 Lincoln Ave. (Steamboat Smokehouse) Built in 1890, this was the site of J.W. Hugus & Co., one of the nation’s first general store chains. It sold farm equipment, furniture, stoves, feed and gasoline in barrels, among other items, in a facility equipped with electric lights, cash carriers and other laborsaving devices. The store housed Steamboat’s first telephone.

17 | Maxwell/Squire Building ●● | 840 Lincoln Ave. (Lyon Drug Store) Once known as the Maxwell Building, this structure was built

by J.D. Maxwell of local pressed brick from Trogler’s brickyard, stone trim and plate glass. A post office occupied a room on the ground floor from 1909 to 1962. In 1920, Chamberlain-Grey Drug Store was the first drug store to occupy this site.

18 | F.M. Light & Sons | 830 Lincoln Ave. The F.M. Light family moved from Hicksville, Ohio, to Steamboat in 1905. Soon after their arrival, they purchased the lot, erected the building and secured enough merchandise to open this clothing store. Light family members traveled throughout Northwest Colorado and southern Wyoming, displaying their merchandise and taking orders from ranchers for Western wear, hats, boots, saddles and equipment. The retail store is still owned by family members.

19 | The Furlong Building | 810 Lincoln Ave. (Bushwacker’s) This building was erected in the 1920s using stone from the Emerald Mountain quarry to frame the windows. Norwegian ski jumper Carl Howelsen completed the brickwork and masonry.

20 | The Routt County National Bank Building ●● 802 Lincoln Ave. (Wild Horse Gallery) Built in 1918 with stonework by Carl Howelsen, this building is a unique landmark of two different periods. The Lincoln Avenue façade shows the rehabilitated 1918 exterior, and the Eighth Street side displays the changes from the 1940s.

Extended Tour A. and B. Crawford Houses ●● 1238 and 1184 Crawford Ave. The second and third houses built by the Crawfords are still standing. The second home, at 1238 Crawford Ave. (on 12th Street), was built in 1886 from native lumber from the Suttle Mill. The bay window was added later to accommodate their daughter’s wedding reception. The large stone house at 1184 Crawford Ave.●● was built in 1894 of stone from the Emerald Mountain quarry. The family occupied this house until Mrs. Crawford’s death in 1939, and have recently moved in again.

C. Cabin Hotel/ Bud Werner Memorial Library 1289 Lincoln Ave. The Cabin Hotel was built on this site in 1909 to serve passengers coming to Steamboat by train. It was one of the most luxurious hotels in the country and the largest in Northwest Colorado. In 1939, it burned to the ground in less than one hour, claiming two lives.

D. The Depot ●● 1001 13th St. Designed by famous Denver architect Frank E. Edbrooke, the Depot was completed in 1909, shortly after the Moffat Line reached Steamboat in December 1908. During the early 1910s, Steamboat was the largest cattle-shipping center in the country.

The train provided passenger service until 1968. The Depot now houses the Steamboat Springs Arts Council and the Eleanor Bliss Center for the Arts.

Trail Report

Steamboat’s nonprofit bicycle advocacy group Routt County Riders keeps an updated bike trail report online. www.routtcountyriders.org

Tour de Steamboat: A road “race” for everyone

Steamboat’s pavement attracts recreational road bikers and elite cyclists in search of roads less traveled. The non-competitive Tour de Steamboat (Sunday, July 17) is one way for everyone to check out a few long local rides with camaraderie and support crews to guide you through the day. Take the Gore Gruel, a 110mile ride over two Rocky Mountain passes – or tone it down with the slightly less intimidating 40-mile Stagecoach Out-n-back ride. Proceeds benefit the Sunshine Kids Foundation. www.TourdeSteamboat.com

Mountain Bike the Steamboat Ski Area Gondola-assisted – or not.

A few suggested rides:

•

A quick ride that starts at the bottom of the ski area is Zig Zag to Yoo Hoo, or lower Valley View. There are some steady uphill sections and a short, fun switch-back downhill at the end of Yoo Hoo.

If you have more time, stay on Zig Zag and •head to the top of Thunderhead. From there, cyclists have lots of trail options for winding back down, including boarding the gondola if downhill bike rides aren’t your game.

Riding up the gondola is also an option. From •here, the easiest section is Duster, a dirt service

road. You can even trail a child-carrier or tagalong on this path while enjoying the glorious view. This connects to harder single-track trails – or turn back after approximately two miles.

•

The Elkhead Loop starts at the top of the gondola and is a short single-track ride with some up-and-down sections. This also connects with Moonlight, a single-track with switchbacks through beautiful aspen glades, which then connects to Valley View, a popular ride with awesome views offering a more difficult descent than Zig Zag. 970-879-6111 | www.steamboat.com

Steamboat is surrounded by mountain bike trails, including a brand-new one that traverses Emerald Mountain.

More trail info on pages VG64-65.

Road Bike

Seek out the county roads less traveled and make a loop out of town.

• Twenty Mile Road: Start at the Bud Werner Memorial Library and follow 13th Street,

which turns into the newly paved Routt County Road 33. At the coal mine, turn left toward Oak Creek on Routt County Road 27. Return direct to Steamboat via Colorado 131, or make a scenic detour on Routt County Road 14, passing Stagecoach Reservoir. (50 miles with the detour)

Emerald Mountain: Start at Bud Werner •Memorial Library and follow 13th Street, which turns into the newly paved Routt County Road 33. Turn left on Routt County Road 43, then right onto Routt County Road 41, both wellmaintained dirt roads. Turn left onto Routt County Road 35, which turns into Routt County Road 14, aka River Road, and head back to Steamboat Springs. (30 miles; 6 miles on dirt)

Corey Kopischke

Mountain Bike on Howelsen Hill, Emerald Mountain & the Routt National Forest

Mountain bike trails on Howelsen Hill traverse fields of wildflowers. Venture even higher up on Emerald Mountain for a 6.8-mile ride locals call the “Beall Trail,” the 4.3-mile Rotary Trail or the 4-mile Ridge Trail.

Rules Of The Trail

Bike Tips From The Pros Maintenance tips

Chris Katers keeps the bicycle wheels spinning at Steamboat Ski & Bike Kare.

•

A good tune-up at the beginning of biking season can save lots of problems later. If you only take your bike to the shop once a year, this is it.

The mechanic will check your tires, brakes, bearings, wheels, tire pressure, gear shift and suspension.

• Less is more when it comes to cleaning your bicycle after a ride.

Rinse it with trickling water – no high-pressure hoses – and use a soft brush to remove mud.

Tips for the commuter

Murray Selleck has logged lots of miles commuting from his rural Routt County home to work at Ski Haus.

•

Try commuting once or twice a week to start. Then, when you’ve figured out the logistics, add a day or two at a time until you’re riding four or five times a week. After awhile, you don’t mind going to work because you get to ride.

•

Don’t choose your route based solely on the shortest distance between two points. Find trails or back roads that may add a little time but a ton of safety.

• • Ride with a bag like the Chrome Commuter Bag. It’s comfortable, rock-solid and holds a change of clothes, thermos, camera and rain

• When you hear a metal-to-metal squeaking sound, your chain needs lubricating. Apply a wax, oil or synthetic lubricant, then

A white front light and red flashing taillight are great defenses against potentially distracted drivers and wildlife.

• Before every ride, check your tire pressure. The recommended psi is on the side of the tire. get out your Allen wrenches and torque every bolt •youMid-season, see.

gear. Or plan ahead and leave fresh clothes at the ofce.

spin the wheel through its gears and wipe the excess off with a soft cloth. You can overlube a chain!

Mountain bike tips

Brock Webster, who owns Orange Peel Bicycle Service, pedals to Emerald Mountain within moments: “You can’t beat the twisty, spider web network of trails up there to lose yourself quickly.”

•

On a technical section of trail, be smooth. Enter with your feet level, elbows and knees bent, and arms loose. Prepare to absorb bumps and extend into compressions.

• Look ahead and concentrate on the line you need to take, not the scary obstacles in your path.

• Think of momentum as your friend. Going too slow is often a major cause of not clearing obstacles. Speed smoothes out the trail. Your wheels can roll over amazingly difficult looking things, if you have momentum.

• • Always brake before a corner, drop-off, rock or other obstacle, then lay off the brakes when doing the move.

• Carry at least the bare essentials: inner tube, pump, tire levers.

Avoid skidding the rear wheel, and practice utilizing the front brake as it actually offers more braking power.

VG 20 | ONL INe AT WW W.ST eAm BOA TC HA mBe r.C Om

•

There’s no bad weather, just bad attitudes – EXCEPT for lightning. If it’s all around you, get away from your bike, find a low spot, squat down on the balls of your feet and lift your heels, making yourself as small as possible.

Tips for racers

Katie Lindquist is co-owner of Kent Eriksen Cycles and a twotime world champion 24-hour racer. She has won both the road and mountain bike world championships.

•

For your first race, pick a small event. Take suggestions on the course and enjoy the camaraderie after the event.

•

Start training now. Riding your bike is the best way to be fast. Focus each workout using online resources and books.

• Training is not the time to cut back on calories.

• You do not actually die from bonking or cramping. Keep moving.

• Make sure all the bike’s bolts and important parts are tightened adequately.

• Get quality bike shorts with a padded liner. Make sure your jersey has sleeves to protect your shoulders in a crash, and back pockets to carry tools, food or water. Eyewear is essential for sun and debris. Wear a helmet that fits and can be snugged up comfortably.

Steamboat Springs Running Series

The Steamboat Springs Running Series was named “Best Running Series” by Colorado Runner Magazine, and from May to September the road and trail races hit their stride for everyone from social joggers to hardy ultramarathoners. Thirteen races include the Steamboat Marathon (Sunday, June 5, www. steamboatmarathon.com), the Howelsen Hill 8-Miler (Saturday, July 9), and the 10K at 10,000 feet (Sunday, Sept. 4). www.runningseries.com

Emerald Mountain rises behind downtown Steamboat. Saunter off main street for many levels of wilderness trails. Hikers, mountain-bikers, runners, horseback riders and dog-walkers share the inter-connecting trails that rise to approximately 8,000 feet behind Howelsen Hill. Routes depart from the Howelsen Hill sports complex near Fifth and Yampa streets. www.steamboatsprings.net

Yoga & Pilates

In the summer, ski runs make way for hiking and mountain biking trails. Zigzag to the top of Storm Peak, then enjoy the switchbacks on the downhill ride. Or ride the gondola halfway up or down. Plenty of loops, service roads and single tracks make the ski area accessible for all ages and abilities.

970-879-6111 | www.steamboat.com

Every good run deserves a great stretch. There’s ample opportunity for all levels of yogi in Steamboat. Try everything from restorative to vigorous flow sessions, plus Pilates mat and equipment classes. Walk-in classes are available daily. Find Steamboat’s yoga and Pilates studios listed on VG48.

Altitude Adjustment Soar, slide, climb and always look down. The view matches the adrenaline.

Hot Air Balloon

The Yampa Valley is renowned as a balloon pilot’s dream with “box winds” that keep flights contained in a circular pattern over the open valley floor. Soaring at heights of up to 3,000 feet, hot air ballooning is one of the most coveted ways to see the local landscape. Peacefully floating in a basket above the Yampa Valley, it’s often hard to sense whether you are going up or down, as you can look straight down on the world below.

Alpine Slide

The 2,400-foot Howler Alpine Slide lets you turn faster than an Olympian as you zoom down Howelsen Hill driving your own summer sled. Dual side-by-side tracks let you race through six 90° turns and eight 180° turns – and ticket sales benefit the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club.

Rock Climb

Routt County has great beginner to intermediate rock climbing, where never-evers or those with indoor wall experience can enjoy the thrill and the view from several single-pitch or multi-pitch climbs near Steamboat. Rocky Mountain Ventures offers guided half-day and full-day trips to thrill-seekers ages 6 and up.

Most climbs are “top rope,” meaning climbers are belayed by a guide from bolted anchors.

Yampa River

The Yampa River offers catch and release fishing for everyone.

Tube

Steamboat’s tubing season starts in early July. As soon as spring runoff slows down, tube rentals begin with shuttle services for trips up and down the river. Grab an inner tube and take a cool float down the Yampa.

See “Tubing” listings on page VG47 for tube rental shops.

Kayak

Dip your paddle in spring whitewater or mellow mid-summer flow on the Yampa River. Backdoor Sports and Mountain Sports Kayak School rent boats and can teach you to paddle. Backdoor Sports 970- 8796249 and Mountain Sports Kayak School 970-879-8794

The Yampa River runs through the heart of Steamboat Springs. Test the waters while you fish, tube, kayak or swim – or simply stroll along the banks.

Raft

Swim

Whitewater raft the Yampa River through Steamboat in early summer or travel west to Cross Mountain with class IV and V rapids. The Elk River is a thrilling early season option; later the mighty Colorado runs all summer through canyons southwest of Steamboat. See “Boating” listings on page VG44 for river rafting outfitters.

Cool off on a hot summer day with a plunge into the Yampa River. Downtown swimming holes include the C-Hole behind the Bud Werner Memorial Library and the D-Hole just downstream – both have appealing sunny rocks for spectators. If a snowmelt swim leaves you chilled to the bone, stop at Rich Weiss Park and warm up in the runoff from Old Town Hot Springs.

Fly Fish

Yampa River Core Trail

The Yampa River is famous for fly fishing, and catch-and-release restrictions apply throughout town. There is free public access all along the river – but you need a fishing license ($9/day or $26/year for Colorado residents). Only artificial flies and lures are allowed, and all fish must be returned to the water. Kids will like fishing at Casey’s Pond (U.S. 40 and Walton Creek Road), where the water is still and the catches plentiful. Novice and diehard fishermen can find experienced local guides listed under “Fishing” on VG45.

Most of the lodging facilities available through Steamboat Central Reservations have been assigned quality ratings by an independent rating service. Properties are ďŹ rst placed in price categories of Premium ($$$$), Expensive ($$$), Moderate ($$) or Economy ($) based on regular season rates. A random sample of units/ rooms from each property is then inspected and assigned a quality rating designation of Excellent (EX), Very Good (VG), Good (G) or Fair (F). Properties that are not part of Steamboat Central Reservations are not rated. The rating designation assigned represents the overall quality of the furnishings, materials and maintenance. Properties are compared to one another within the same price categories. Standards of quality are Steamboat-based, although national standards are taken into consideration in order to form a baseline. Conditions of the property may have changed since the time of inspection.
