CLOSED FOR THE SUMMER. WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU IN LATE MAY 2025! Come see us for an exhilarating ride, located right across the river from downtown! Enjoy breathtaking town and mountain views on the chairlift ride up to the top of Howelsen Hill, then get ready for an exhilarating ride as you wind down a 2,400 foot long track through the bends and curves of the natural landscape of beautiful Howelsen Hill on an alpine slide sled where you control your speed. If you're looking for a slower paced adventure, purchase the scenic chairlift ride ticket and enjoy the views at the top, even take a hike on the Emerald Mountain trails, then head back down the chairlift. Mountain bikers can load their bikes on the chair for a ride up, making it easier to enjoy the single track on Emerald Mountain or a ride down the flowy NPR trail. All proceeds benefit the young athletes of the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club.

Improve the maintenance on your slides!! Lots of money to come to a complete stop on the rail!! Maybe have an adult manager on site! Breckenridge and Winter Patk Alpine Slides are so much better!!!!!
