Горнолыжный район в Колорадо, США
Ski area in Colorado, United States
Steamboat Resort – крупный горнолыжный курорт на западе Соединенных Штатов, расположенный на северо-западе Колорадо, в Стимбоат-Спрингс. Управляется компанией Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation и находится на горе Вернер, в хребте Парк-Рейндж Национального леса Рутт. Первоначально называвшийся горнолыжным районом "Сторм-Маунтин", он открылся 12 января 1963 года. На территории горнолыжного района 297 обозначенных трасс, из которых 14% классифицированы как для начинающих, 42% – для среднего уровня подготовки и 44% – для опытных лыжников. Здесь также находится Mavericks Superpipe – одна из лучших хаф-пайпов в Северной Америке. Ограниченное количество трасс для ночного катания начали предлагать в сезоне 2013–2014 годов. В честь местного олимпийца Бадди Вернера (1936–1964) в 1965 году гора Сторм была переименована в гору Вернер, и название горнолыжного района также было изменено. Далласский конгломерат LTV приобрел горнолыжный район Маунт-Вернер осенью 1969 года, переименовал его в "Steamboat" следующим летом и нанял чемпиона мира и серебряного призера Олимпийских игр Билли Кидда на должность директора по лыжному спорту.
Steamboat Resort is a major ski area in the western United States, located in northwestern Colorado at Steamboat Springs. Operated by the Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation, it is located on Mount Werner, a mountain in the Park Range in the Routt National Forest. Originally named Storm Mountain ski area, it opened on January 12, 1963. The ski area has 297 named trails spread over Of those, 14% are classified as beginner level, 42% as intermediate, and 44% as advanced. It also contains the Mavericks Superpipe, one of the premier half pipes in North America. Limited trails available for night skiing began to be offered in the 2013–14 season. In honor of local Olympian Buddy Werner (1936–1964), Storm Mountain was renamed Mount Werner in 1965, and the ski area's name was changed as well. Dallas based conglomerate LTV purchased Mount Werner ski area in the fall of 1969, rebranded it as "Steamboat" the following summer, and hired world champion and Olympic silver medalist Billy Kidd as director of skiing.

According to steamboat. com, plans are in the works to place a high speed six pack along the Thunderhead lift line. The $15 million gondola replacement project lasted through the summer of 2019.

It opened with fanfare on November 23, 2019, at the start of the winter 2019 2020 season, but broke the next day on November 24, when a main driveshaft sheared (possibly due to unexpected stress during transit from Austria). The manufacturer (Doppelmayr) sent a team from Austria to help with the situation, and the Steamboat lift Ops worked together around the clock to build, ship, and install the replacement part(s). The gondola reopened on December 5, almost 12 days later.

Согласно steamboat.com, планируется установка высокоскоростной шестиместной гондолы вдоль трассы Thunderhead. Проект по замене гондолы стоимостью 15 миллионов долларов завершился летом 2019 года. Некоторые из замен опор с использованием вертолета транслировались в прямом эфире, а подъемник был тщательно протестирован под нагрузкой. Он открылся с помпой 23 ноября 2019 года, в начале зимнего сезона 2019-2020 годов, но сломался на следующий день, 24 ноября, когда произошел сдвиг главной приводной оси (возможно, из-за неожиданного напряжения во время транспортировки из Австрии). Производитель (Doppelmayr) направил команду из Австрии для оказания помощи, и сотрудники Steamboat Lift Ops работали круглосуточно, чтобы изготовить, доставить и установить запасные части. Гондола вновь открылась 5 декабря, почти через 12 дней.
