Grooming
You need to indicate which runs have been groomed.
Also go back to tracking the total season snow and a single base number. The range is garbage and just your way to manipulate peoples view. Been coming here since 73. That change is stupid and shows people you think you can manipulate them

Poor job with this Website
This site is so NOT an improvement over the last one. In fact, it’s incredibly cumbersome to use. The weather info is incredibly shallow and not too helpful. The functionality is so poor: it’s not intuitive at all; doesn’t seem to adapt to landscape; and even more incredibly it’s not developed for an iPad!! How can you not offer that with the new app?? I can’t believe anybody in web design that reviewed this app can be happy with it.

New Steamboat App
This new app is horrible. It doesn’t have nearly the information as the last one. PLEASE GO BACK!
Just Terrible
The new version of this app is just terrible. The old version was actually very good, I don’t know why they felt like they had to “fix” it. But it may have something to do with the fact that they mostly want to point you to where you can spend money. Useful things like the trail map are difficult to use. Since this is a free app and there is really no alternative, I guess we’re stuck with it.

Please add daily snow & grooming map back
Used to be able to click on map and view the groomer/open trails highlighted. And could easily get to daily snow from clicking on weather. PLEASE add back to main screen/make more accessible. Legit the only two things I use.
Ridiculously Cumbersome
Sooo not helpful. Visuals poor for trying to see things quickly while on the mountain; nothing links with anything else anymore (used to be able to tap run names from the status list and see the run highlighted on the map, for instance); too many steps to get to basic information; no more complete weather forecast; can’t see base, mid and summit conditions at one glance but have to switch screens; map contrast is poor for quick assessment. Also, what happened to all the webcams?? (And if you’re ever going to get those back, having one on each lift line would be more than helpful.) This is useless for actual mountain activities. Was hoping to keep the old app after trying this but no such luck - unsupported.

Missing current weather at Summit / Mid-Mtn
The old app had the weather details for the summit and mid mountain so you knew if there was an inversion layer and how to dress for the upper mountain.
Now, only a single temp when the current temps can vary by 10-20 deg from base to summit - either way!
Also - links to things like trail status and lift status don’t link where they should. If I tap on trail status, don’t take me to the lift status.

Map and Weather Features fall short
I used the previous app to see what lifts and trails were open along with the weather conditions and report at base, mid mountain and summit. It seems they’ve scrapped these features in lieu of a nicer UI. I hope they consider adding back the relevant features that made the previous app useful.
Use Steamboat website instead!
On the positive side, the live map now gives you lift line wait times, but the new app is otherwise a huge step backwards. Fortunately, the mobile version of Steamboat dot com retains all of the functionality of the old app. (Go to Winter Grooming Map, on the maps page, for a functional map.) On the website, you can get Joel Gratz’s snow report, and lots of other good features, as well.

App is dangerously inadequate
Trail map is non interactive and dysfunctional. Hit a trail and it no longer shows you the trail on the map. Very poor compared to last version. I find the app useless. It puts skier’s at great risk not being able to understand how the trail network system works and how to preplan their skiing activities. Please reinstall original version.
