Over 30 years of skiing at the Boat!

Steamboat is our happy place. Our daughters learned to be great skiers at steamboat’s ski school.
As you are making improvements to the mountain I would like to make one suggestion. Please please build another eating lodge. Rendezvous and Four Points have become so crowded it’s impossible to find a seat. 🙄
We love the escalator by the way!!!😊

Erased my stats

I’ve been using this app to track stats with my family this year. I returned from the second day to find the app had logged me out and all of my stats from the trip so far had been erased. Major yikes! Map is helpful on the trail, which earns a second star. Definitely would not recommend for anything other than that as the reliability is not there.

Steamboat Ski Area

Worst application I have ever used. Very difficult to enter account information with any kind of consistent operation. Very difficult to even login most of the time as a keyboard doesn’t come up and the scan text utility is useless. Very difficult to bring up a search tool. I have spent two hours today trying to follow required steps to get an uphill pass. Virtually impossible and to complete. I was never able to complete.

Great for tracking everything on the mountain

I love using the steamboat app when I am out riding on the mountain. It’s a great way to check lift lines, view the map and find everything on the mountain.

Very helpful

This app helped me so much when I was lost it had tracked my friends so I could know were they we’re!

If it ain’t broke…

…don’t fix it. Been skiing in Steamboat for years. Loved the old app. Worked great. New app hasn’t worked right since I’ve been using it. Link to weather from the main screen doesn’t work. Links for purchasing lift tix don’t work right…app will say there was an error processing when you try to complete the transaction, but the credit card company shows that the same transaction went thru 6x. 🙄

The customer service people at Steamboat manning the phones were great, but whoever QC’d the new app when they rolled it out really blew it. They should make the app coders work the customer service lines…those folks were slammed with calls because of the app malfunctioning.

Terrible map

This app is terrible for people who actually want to ski. The important stuff you want to use is hard to find and not intuitive (trail map and web cams). The map is not easy to use when you are on the mountain. The old app was much better.

Phone app, not iPad app!

Planning a ski trip for next winter, we’ve been to Steamboat many times but not for a few years. Went to open the app I had on my iPad, and it said the app has been replaced and would not do anything else. So I downloaded this app, and it was built for the iPhone only so you don’t get a full screen. I like to have the tablet for viewing the map larger scale, grooming reports, etc.
It looks a bit clumsy to navigate for the main functions, like quickly accessing a map. I guess I’ll just use the website.

New improved app this year is terrible

Old app had all info available on a colorful dashboard page which was very convenient. This app has the same info on multiple tabs (ex weather)but different levels of detail on each tab. So I have to remember which tab shows the most complete. Often need to look back and forth at both tabs. What I miss the most is old app would allow you to tap a trail name and it’s location would display on a visual map. Every year, there are a few new trails or ones you’ve forgotten, so his was a great feature. I ski with 10-20 friends regularly. Everyone hates the new app. Wish you’d return to old version.

Getting Better!

Thank you so much for adding in open and grooming maps, easy access to base/mid/summit weather, and other improvements! The app is much better now. Only other improvement that would be nice is webcam thumbnails to be current when going to view them - often a quick look is better than starting a cam feed.
