We've put the pedal down on the weekend of April 9, and we're seeing response in the marketplace.

This event is a tribute to the original rodeo cowboy. The combination of Steam�--boat's genuine friendliness, real Western heritage and world-class skiing on over 20 feet of Champagne Powder snow this season has made our town and resort the ideal setting for the event for over three decades.

We filled 5,200 of those 5,700 seats. The flow through, from a business standpoint, was terrific. And it demonstrated that our customers will move on to an alternate carrier.

Demand outstripped our capacity on a great number of days this past season. We'll try to add new seats on other airlines. We take that as an obligation.

Even if we had gold medals from every U.S. skier, I think the snow would have eclipsed it. It's clearly been driving our business for the past two months.

The spirit to strive for greatness, and the unwavering support of athletes of all ability levels, allowing them to fulfill their dreams, whether that's just getting started in the sport or competing on the international stage, is truly what makes this community unique and sets Steamboat apart from any other place in the world.
