Blog.ColoradoSki.com

Sometimes it just works out, the stars align, things fall into place, the snow Gods are in a good mood and the next thing you know you’re waking up at a ski resort hotel to 14 inches of fresh snow and your kids are at home having fun with their Grammy and Grandpa.Such was the case when we visited Steamboat not too long ago.

We had a hunch we were going to hit a powder day while we were there based on the forecast but also the drive. The top of Rabbit Ear’s Pass was icy and snow packed, not great for driving but great for skiing.

In the morning the snow report read 14” in 24 hours, which was on top of 9” a couple days ago, which was on top of 30” within the week. Hot diggity dog, we Denver weekend warriors had hit the jackpot.
