Ski Steamboat For Pete's Sake

1: Steamboat Ski Resort - How It Began


Listen Later

Introducing Pete Wither, an icon of the Steamboat Springs, Colorado community.  We start with "Speaking of the 60s...", the story from Pete's eyes of how Steamboat created a ski resort, attracted hippies from all over, and inspired many to try the sport of downhill skiing.  

Pete covers the families who got it going, his stories of working on the tree removal and lift installation, early real estate boom, and how he wishes he had taken a different payment than cash for his work. 

Enjoy the stories from a local legend.
