2021 Local Notes
So many places to ski and hike in this area. Steamboat was spendier than expected. I recommend the Nordic Lodge and it’s large jet tub , and Taco Cabo for a hearty $10 meal and Tamales togo.
Bluebird backcountry was a great experience, and I think the idea will catch on. They are looking for new terrain around the west / world , and if you have access to a zone you’d like to see “lightly managed” through the winter — get in touch!
Lift tickets were trickier than usual to find I70 with covid. Only 50 inches at many locals, with lots expert terrain still closed. Wolf Creek has 100 , and friends had some free time, so we made our way south.
