STEAMBOAT SPRINGS • “This is the West.”
That’s the tagline the tourist folks use to promote this ski town. So, in the summer you expect lots of horse play and rodeos to take center stage — and they do.
What you might not expect is an abundance of arts events, dining options and family activities worthy of a town five times the size. In a single day, you could zoom down an alpine slide, fly fish, soak in hot springs, sip wine at an art walk and catch an opera. OK, maybe you’d want to spread that over a weekend. You don’t want to rush your horse.
