Trip to Steamboat Springs for Winter Carnival

This February I had the pleasure of attending the Steamboat Springs Winter Carnival!  The Carnival is an annual event that the locals enjoy, but it also draws a lot of other Coloradans up to Steamboat.  The Carnival has even received national coverage.




                 


This is the view I was lucky enough to have while staying with family!

Saturday Ski Jump




Skiers go down Howelsen Hill with flares


The famed Lighted Man skies down Howelsen Hill (yes, he has fireworks strapped to his back)
AND he changes colors!



If Lighted Man wasn't enough, skiers take firework-filled toboggans down the slope!




A ring of fire is added to the ski jump!
