Corduroy shredding, groomer bombing, railroad tracks... whatever you want to call it, the recent stretch of sunny weather has been perfect for carving arcing turns on-piste. With more sunny days to come, we've partnered with OpenSnow so we always know the right equipment to bring to make the most of whatever sort of day it is on the mountain. While the fleeting beauty of a powder day is always something worth celebrating, we've rounded up a few of our favorite "old-reliable" runs that make every day on Steamboat feel special.
Buddy's Run
This run is named after Steamboat legend and ski icon Buddy Werner, and is a perfect run for those who love groomers. While this trail can get busy from time to time, but starting at the steep beginning all of the way down, this run is fun for everyone.
West Side
This shorter run off of the South Peak is a blast for a speedy lap for advanced skiers. Drop off of Lower High Noon and then get cruising for a lap or five.
Frying Pan to Cowboy Coffee
If you're looking to get to the backside of the mountain for a long, fun, run down some corduroy, this is the trail for you. Soak in the big sweeping views off of this trail while you enjoy the fantastic views. There's plenty off to each side to enjoy, or not, depending on skill level.
