Steamboat Springs Planners — Common Questions
When does the mountain actually open for summer?
Later than the calendar suggests, and the date moves each year with how much snow fell and how fast it goes. Venues up there publish an opening once they know. If your date is in the first half of June, ask what happened in each of the last few years.
What if the opening slips past our wedding?
Then you need a site in the valley that was always going to be ready, which is why couples marrying early in the season book the mountain as the upgrade rather than the plan. Ask the venue in writing what they do if the site is not open, and by when they will tell you.
Is late snow really a problem in June?
At altitude it can be, in patches and underfoot, and the ground stays wet for a while after it goes. A meadow that looks like a photograph in August is a bog in early June. Ask what the site is like at your date rather than what it is like in season.
What about the other end of summer?
Late August and September are the reliable stretch, with firm ground and the aspens turning at the end of it. That is also when everybody else wants to be here, so the dates go early. If flexibility is on your side, that is where to spend it.
Do guests need to get up the mountain themselves?
Usually not, and it is better if they do not. Venues run a lift or a shuttle on a set schedule, and the last one down is a real deadline. Put the timings in the invitation, because a guest who misses it is a long way from town.
