Wooden Ski Rendezvous 2008

Our Steamboat Springs area chapter, Friends of Routt Backcountry hosted their annual wooden ski festival February 29 - March 1 at the Columbine Cabins at the base of Hahn's Peak. The festival is a chance for FORB and BSA to thank our members in the greater Steamboat area for their support throughout the year and get the woodies out of the closet.

This year's event included cross country ski races, including the Boil em' Up Race during which racers are required to boil a cup of snow however they like; a Treasure Hunt for the kids, Potluck with live music, and skiiing at Hahn's Peak. A wonderful time was had by all in such a wonderful setting.



Thanks to Leslie Lovejoy and FORB, Backcountry Provisions, Neptune Mountaineering, Mahogany Ridge, Backdoor Sports, Ski Haus, Smartwool, Little Moon Essentials, Ambiente, The Silver Lining, Ace at the Curve Hardware, BAP, Tread of Pioneers Museum, Columbine Cabins, and all those that contributed to this year's event.

We'll see you next February!
