Back-to-school means fall is on its way

Many schools are already back in session, and you can feel an ever-so-slight chill in the air. Fall is coming, and it is an especially beautiful time in Steamboat Springs. (Oh, who are we kidding? We can say that in any season here. Not that we're rubbing it in.) 

Back-to-school time offers a bit of a lull in the tourist season here (before the slopes open and welcome people for glorious winter vacations), but there is still so much to do. So, take advantage of smaller crowds during the fall and enjoy some of these activities: 

All Arts Festival
Aug. 18-21, 2016
Sneak in one last incredible summer festival this weekend as you enjoy music and dance performances alongside incredible visual art displays. 

Wild West Air Fest
Sept. 3-4, 2016
The best pilots in the west come together for incredible exhibitions of formation flying and air acrobatics. Visitors can even sign up for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to fly above the Yampa Valley in one of the planes. 

OktoberWest
Sept. 16-17, 2016
You don't need to fly to Germany to enjoy beer and gorgeous mountains. Celebrate Oktoberfest Colorado-style with local beer and food, a cook-off and great activities.
