Winter Activities at Fish Creek Falls, Steamboat Springs, Colorado
By PK | January 5, 2009
In the northwest corner of Colorado winter activities are abundant if you’re craving adventure. From the most extreme thrills of ice climbing the famous 230-ft. Fish Creek Falls waterfall to snowshoeing the many accessible trails to body-sledding and winter hiking at Fish Creek Falls, there’s plenty to do to enjoy the snowy outdoors.
Two ice climbers on the Fish Creek Falls Frozen Waterfall
While I may be adventurous, I am not quite this adventurous though I must admit just watching these climbers was a thrill within itself.
With temperature averages maintaining in the 20s for daytime, many climbing enthusiasts seek out Fish Creek Falls for an ice-climbing adventure facing a different course every year after the falls freeze.
Snowshoeing is a great activity for all ages and helps maintain that wistful waistline. I personally rate this outdoor activity as easy to moderate. Don’t know how to snowshoe? It’s easy to learn or you can take classes in Steamboat. I found it difficult at first not to look at my feet as I walked. I’m sure they’ll teach you NOT to do that in snowshoeing school.
Prepared to go on their snowshoeing adventure…
During our exploration of Fish Creek Falls during the winter we saw this young couple body-sledding down one of the trails. It looked fun and reminded me of my youthful days when I lived next to Lake Erie as a child.
His turn… Her turn…
Even a walk on one of the trails will get you out of the house to avoid cabin fever during the long winters here and offers fantastic views.
Bottom of Fish Creek Falls
We really enjoyed our hike and I was quite amazed that we were actually walking almost two feet above the trail as the trail was covered with two feet of packed snow.
I bundled up against the elements with a double layer of clothing with my Gore-Tex jacket and warm, insulated gloves. The trail was a bit slippery and if you stepped off the ‘beaten’ path, you soon found yourself sinking into the unpacked Champagne snow this area is famous for.
So, get off the couch, get out of the kitchen, or push away from your computer and get outside and enjoy a brisk walk. Wherever you live, don’t let old man winter keep you indoors. Get out and have fun!
Okay, maybe not that much fun and silliness…but whichever you choose just remember to bring along your camera and take some pictures. Post them on your blog and watch the fun begin!!!

Watching those climbers from here scares the hell out of me, the buzz they get must be high. You’re so lucky to have access to these scenes. Many people are stuck in towns and work all hours never having opportunties to see the great outdoors. Show the way PK!

I’m not so sure about that waterfall climbing, but we learned to snowshoe last year in Yellowstone. We loved it so much, we bought our own snowshoes when we got home … now if it would only snow!
