[Weekend Getaway] Ski The Boat II

We visited Steamboat Springs for a 3rd straight year around the Christmas holiday. We were spoiled this year as Steamboat received the most December snow in over a decade! We took advantage!

With all the snow, nearly all of the mountain was open and I was able to ski Morningside Park on the backside of the mountain. It quickly became my favorite part of the resort and I cannot wait to go back!

Here’s the recap!

Day One

  • Drove 3 hours from our home to the Meadows Lot 
  • Afternoon windy ski
  • Apres at Gondola Pub and Grill with friends
  • Dinner at Besame (highly recommend; loved it last year and again this year!) 

Day Two

  • Bitterly cold, bluebird ski day
  • Hot tub happy hour
  • Strolled through several souvenir shops along Lincoln Avenue (aka main street)
  • Burgers at Back Door Grill (highly recommend for burger night; voted “Best of the Boat” and they did not disappoint)

Day Three

  • Perfect ski day
  • Apres at Gondola Pub and Grill with friends (again!!)
  • Dinner at Mambo Italiano (not going to recommend; wanted to like it yet the vibe and food weren’t great) 

Day Four

  • Packed up and headed home! 
  • Another great weekend getaway in Steamboat Springs!
