Catch A Legend, Be A Legend
Fishing is a favorite pastime for the angler enthusiasts in your group. With a regulation bag limit of four fish daily and a possession limit of eight fish. Don’t forget your camera so the folks at home will believe the size of the Cutthroat you caught and they will just have to take your word for the rainbow trout that got away.
Be sure to pick up your fishing license, bait and tackle at The Marina.

Wildlife Viewing
Mingle With Elk And Fox (at a safe distance)
Animals located in the park are mule deer, beaver, chipmunks, long tailed weasel, snowshoe hare and on rare occasions the black bear and mountain lion. With over 200 species of migratory birds and an amazing assortment of wildflowers, the drifting clouds and vast blue sky lends this panorama of splendor a dreamlike quality.
​
There are trails throughout the park where nature exploration offers an array of native wildlife. With pristine views of Sand Mountain, Meaden Peak, Hahn’s Peak, Farwell Mountain and the peaks forming the Continental Divide you might spot a red fox frolicking in the aspen forest.
​
Winter
Play In The Snow And Fish On Ice
During the winter months, the lake freezes over and the abundant snowfall transforms the surrounding area into a frozen playground. Ice fishing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing on 18k of dedicated non-motorized trails, big mountain backcountry skiing, and over 100 miles of groomed multi-purpose trails are all around the marina. The cross country ski trails begin a few steps from the cabins, and the multi-use trail system trailhead is located directly behind the marina building!

Steamboat Lake Marina reflects the majestic Hahn’s Peak named after Joseph Hahn. Hahn’s Peak was a center for gold mining in the 1860’s and reminders of the past can still be recognized in the towns around the base of the mountain.
