Steamboat Springs, CO - Powder, the Steamboat Ski Area’s Saint Bernard mascot, might be one of the most familiar furry faces in Steamboat Springs. She can be spotted at the Steamboat Base Area surrounded by a flock of kids, or at the top of the gondola, greeting guests as they unload. But Powder is just one of many pooches who call Steamboat home.

Winter brings out the inner puppies in our four-legged friends. They love to roll, bounce and play in the freshly fallen snow, and to join their owners on adventurous winter outings. Winter unleashes our pups’ inner happiness.
