In 1991, I remember skiing Steamboat in 1991. We had a ski in/ski out condo. Everyone wanted to quit for the day, but I wanted to do one more run. We did a very difficult run named DROP OUT. It was on the outer edge of the ski boundary and never groomed. It was exhilarating. We stormed back into the condo, but nobody wanted to hear about our accomplishment because the Gulf War just ended on February 28, 1991.
In the map below, Buddy's Run is just above Drop Out. Drop Out was groomed and FAST and FUN!
They doubled the number of trails!
