Steamboat Resort just opened this past weekend, kicking off the 2024/25 with a classic opening day party. And while most resorts typically spend a few weeks with extremely limited terrain, the Colorado resort is already getting ready to open up Sunshine Bowl, marking the earliest the area has opened in Steamboat history.
