It may not be a great snow year in Steamboat but sometimes that is a chance to appreciate a place for more that it's marquee attraction. The snow is better than most of the state but not quite what we are used to after several epic years that have made our powder dreams a reality.
We along with quite a few other locals have been mountain biking up Emerald Mountain this winter not just on the roads which is often possible but on some of our best single track. If you wonder how we are on our normal mountain bikes with just a bit of air taken out of the tires. The snow have been friendly with a great tacky quality to it and we have had a blast.
The ride up is great practice since you do need to stay on the narrow trail, the exercise feels good and the downhills on MGM, Mollys, Lupine and others are downright fun. Living in Steamboat is great even when the snow isn't because there is always something fun and off the beaten path so to speak that you can find to do. If you would like to talk about the secrets that make it great to live here or see if Life in Steamboat might be a fit for you just give me a call. 970-879-0879. I'll listen to your questions then give you honest answers so you can make a great decision for you.
One of the fun parts of my job is that my network allows me to find undiscovered gems that are not listed in the Steamboat MLS. I have a friend that is looking for property with great views that is close to town and in the Steamboat School district. The listed properties just haven't met their goals so I have enjoyed the chance to think a bit, dig a bit and explore some great land in Steamboat . I haven't found the perfect one yet, unless of course this one is but I have taken some great hikes and have uncovered some gems for my next client that would like some land.
If you would like a Realtor that is willing to go the extra miles ... for you, give me a call tell me your goals and I will help you achieve them. Jon Wade Steamboat Realtor, at your service. 970-879-0879
