๐Ÿป Keep your distance - we recommend 150ft for bears and other large animals.
๐Ÿป Properly dispose of trash & be mindful of food in particular.

Did you know moose have notoriously poor eye-sight, especially when it comes to long distances? However, their eyes are well-suited for spotting vegetation on the bottom of shallow lakes and ponds while they graze. Their other senses compensate for their eyesight, making it so moose have an excellent sense of smell and hearing. Remember to always give these animals plenty of space to protect yourselves, and them! We recommend a minimum of 150ft at all times. โ

It's official folks - the river is CLOSED. ๐Ÿšซ See details from the City of Steamboat Springs below and please stay off the Yampa until further notice to protect our aquatic life. โค๏ธ

Water temperatures in the Yampa River are rising above the allowed threshold and triggering the City of Steamboat Springs to enact commercial and voluntary recreational closures for the Yampa River. The closure will remain in effect until rescinded.

Due to high water temperatures (75+) over the past two consecutive days on the Yampa River, the city is implementing closures for all commercial activities on the Yampa River and asking the public to abide by a voluntary closure for all recreational river use starting August 7.

Even as flows remain above 120 cubic feet per second (cfs) and remain attractive to users, itโ€™s a different story for the water temperatures which significantly impact aquatic life. Thatโ€™s why adhering to the closure is important for the biological health of the river even when flows remain higher.

One of Steamboat's most known landmarks, Rabbit Ears, sits proudly on the east side of the Continental Divide where Highway 40 crosses. The peak is known for its shape, which resembles two rabbit ears, though the tip of one ear broke off in 2017. Rabbit Ears Pass is a popular destination for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter and hiking, camping, and trail running in the summer.

The Devil's Causeway | This iconic Routt County hike is a six-mile round-trip trek to the causeway or a 10-mile round-trip if you continue on a loop that goes all the way around.

The highlight of the journey is the thrill of crossing the Devilโ€™s Causeway. At 11,800 feet and only four feet wide in some places (not to mention several hundred-foot drops on either side) โ€” this hike is not for everyone. Whether you make it on two feet or all fours, there is no rush like completing this rigorous hike!

Camping season is in full effect, which means wildfire season is too. With the snow melted and rainstorms slowing down, it's important to be wildfire aware when spending time outdoors. Find some important tips below ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘‡๏ธ

๐Ÿ”ฅKeep campfires small and manageable.
๐Ÿ”ฅNever let a fire burn unattended.
๐Ÿ”ฅUse an existing fire ring or fire pit. If there is not an existing fire pit, and pits are allowed, look for a site that is at least fifteen feet away from tent walls, shrubs, trees or other flammable objects. Also, beware of low-hanging branches overhead.
๐Ÿ”ฅSupervise children and pets when they are near fire.
๐Ÿ”ฅNever cut live trees or branches for fires.
๐Ÿ”ฅIf you think it isn't safe enough to light a campfire, choose to be safe and not start one.
๐Ÿ”ฅProperly extinguish and dispose of ci******es.
๐Ÿ”ฅWhen putting out a fire, water it until you can handle the embers

Red-tailed hawks are one of the most common hawks in Routt County. Their flying speed is 20-40 m.p.h. but can reach up to 120 m.p.h. when diving - which you may see out at Stagecoach Reservoir as they hunt for food! Their diet includes small mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and insects. You may see nests on your drive on telephone poles and power lines. โ

The Mad Creek trail is a much-beloved Steamboat Springs hike. Itโ€™s iconic for its high mountain scenery and medium-difficulty terrain that includes an 800-foot elevation gain over the first mile or so. Two miles up the Mad Creek Trail sits the Mad Barn, built in 1906 by homesteaders. Take in local history and take a photo in the doorway of the barn. Or, enjoy a peaceful picnic lunch accompanied by the sounds of chirping birds and the rushing Mad Creek!

The More Barn is the most famous barn in all of Steamboat Springs - so much so that it is often referred to as โ€œthe Steamboat Barn.โ€ Featured on ski resort marketing for decades, most iconically on a 1970s poster of two horseback riders in deep snow with skis across the top of their pommels, the More Barn sparks the Western imagination for skiers and riders. Located in between downtown and the mountain in a residential neighborhood, Barn Village, anyone can visit the four-acre park and create their own iconic photo of the barn and the slopes at any given time. Approaching its centennial, the barn was built between 1926 and 1928 and truly symbolizes the evolution of downtown Steamboat from pasturelands to subdivisions.
