A river runs through the new office of The Local! 20 feet from The Local’s back office door, Brandon Brock enjoys fishing in the Yampa while basking in unseasonably warm late November weather. Brandon states that he originally moved to Steamboat one and a half years ago “to hunt Sasquatch,” but has since settled for a regular job as a server at Bistro CV. He now relegates his hunting activity to fish, having taken up the fly rod eight months ago. Looming in the background of the cover is a sparsely snowcovered Steamboat Ski Area beckoning the arrival of winter and more snow. But with more warm weather in the near forecast, it’s going to be a close call to get the ski area open on schedule on November 26. Last year the ski area was forced to open nine days late due to lack of snow, but then Mother Nature made up for it with the biggest snow year on record – over 450 inches! Let’s hope for a repeat performance. Over the past fortnight The Local relocated to a warehouse next to the James Brown Soul Center of the Universe Bridge. If you would like to stop by and enjoy a beautiful view and make a few casts and place an ad, feel free to come on by. We’re in the lower industrial half of Unit 1 in the new Riverfront Park industrial/residential development.
