#N:uok:7100004:000:959 uok!wjohnson Nov 9 17:53:00 1983 I have had the opportunity to visit most of the ski areas in Colorado and New Mexico, and of all of them, my favorite has got to be Steamboat Springs. It is a very large area, quite a few runs of all three colors. The skiing is patently excellent, but the thing that stands out most in my memory is the people--all of them, from the lift operators to the skiers to the locals. Everyone is friendly! I have always come away with a very good feeling for the people. All you Vail fans who like BIG mountains but are tired of the jet-set hype should try Steamboat. It is not so crowded usually, because it is a rather long trip for Texans and Oklahomans. Also, the town (Steamboat Springs) offers many outstanding restaurants and night spots. I seem to remember reading a brochure that went something like this: More snow than Snowmass More powder than Vail More sun than Aspen More bars than Utah W. Carey Johnson, Jr. [duke!uok!wjohnson]
