 The season kicks off with Opening Day at Steamboat Resort, and locals know this is a day of   excitement, fresh powder, and reconnecting with friends on the slopes. Whether you’re a skier,   snowboarder, or a spectator, it’s an exhilarating experience to be there from day one. Many   residents and visitors come out to celebrate, take advantage of early-season runs, and enjoy   the winter magic.
