The soothing sounds of waterfalls and a gurgling creek are now audible at the base of Steamboat Ski Area after a much-anticipated water feature was turned on this month.

The creek had run beneath the ski trails in a culvert for 45 years before the project was undertaken. The work was paid for using the proceeds of bonds that were backed by the city’s tax increment financing, which captures growth in property taxes at the base of the ski area.

On the town side of the mountain, that means Blair Witch, Bluffs Loop, Ricky’s Ridge, Larry’s and MGM are open, to go along with Ridge Trail and Rotary Trail, both of which are on the back side and were among the first trails in the area to dry out. One section at the bottom of Lupine is closed, but otherwise Lupine is open.
