Scenic Drive from Denver, Steam
boat Springs is located just 180 miles from Denver International Airport (DIA), a pleasant 3 hour drive. From Denver travel west on I-70 through the Eisenhower Tunnel to Silverthorne/Dillon exit. From Silverthorne/Dillon head north on Colorado 9 for 36 miles to the town of Kremmling, this is about a 40 minute drive. Once in Kremmling you will come to a stop sign, turn left onto US Hwy 40. Once on US Hwy 40, it is just 53 miles to Steamboat Springs. En route you’ll pass through the Rockies’ high plains and grazing lands before you begin a gradual ascent to the famed Rabbit Ears Pass. Be sure to look for the “Ears” rock formation on your right. Upon descending the pass you’ll see Lake Catamount, and off in the horizon the Flat Top Wilderness Area. After entering Steamboat take the Mt. Werner exit, which takes you to the ski area base and the Sheraton Steamboat Resort. A resort that will build lasting memories of the great scenic Colorado outdoors.

The ski chair 20 is right outside our door ready to hoist you up Vail Mountain before you can say "first tracks." And when you've had enough for the day, ski "home" via the "Cascade Way" trail. We'll be waiting for you at the door with hot apple cider and hot chocolate.

Purgatory Village Let's face it. While there's more to a winter vacation than just skiing, (especially here in Durango), the modern amenities of today's winter vacation are all here because of skiing. From the days when Jack Rabbit Johnson used skis to complete his ambitious Sierra Nevada mail routes, to a time when we can follow our modern ski heroes on the world wide web, the love of skiing has been at the core of it all. For some, it's the feeling of arcing a turn through soft snow, shoulders in the fall line, gravity working its simple magic. For others, it's the breathtaking excitement of boarding a chairlift for the first time, or feeling your instructor's words come to life as you link parallel turns. Words like unique, and legendary, have probably been a bit overworked by ski area marketing types - but the Purgatory mountain is truly a special case. Glaciers covered these slopes during the last Ice Age, and because of a geologic whim, our mountain today is defined by an addictive blend of roller coaster benches and headwalls, double fall lines and glades - and a character that is as individual as your own. The mountain features 75 trails across 2,500 acres, and has something to please everyone. Beginners have approximately 23% of our 1,200 skiable acres to learn on, and can enjoy the views from the top of the mountain along with the rest of their group. The Columbine Beginner Area is a place for first-timers to call their own, with its own restaurant and lifts. Advanced and expert skiers love the front side, where they can access the steeps of Styx, Pandemonium, Lower Hades and Catharsis, by riding our new high-speed, six person super chair - The Purgatory Village Express.
