Yampa River, Steamboat Springs, 2003: Phase II of this project was completed in 2003 with the creation of one of Colorado’s premier play features. “This hole is going off” was the news from Steamboat in its premier runoff season. Already this site has played host to two major freestyle events as we look forward to seeing how many great features one town can have.
The new hole in Steamboat Springs has hit the money! This new feature has turned out to be a tremendous success. The word out of this town is that the hole is big and bouncy, especially in this year's heavy run-off. Don't be surprise to hear that more and more big events are headed to Steamboat.
