The City of Steamboat Springs
is a Home Rule Municipality that is the county seat and the most populous
city of Routt County, Colorado, United States. The city known as
"Steamboat," "The Boat," or "Ski Town USA" had a population of 9,815 at
the U.S. Census 2000. The town is an internationally known winter resort
destination. The Steamboat Springs tourism industry is highlighted by the
Steamboat Ski Resort, which is on Mount Werner in the Park Range just east
of the town. It also contains the much smaller Howelsen Ski Area. It is
located in the upper valley of the Yampa River, along U.S. Highway 40 just
west of the Continental Divide at Rabbit Ears Pass. It is served by Yampa
Valley Airport.

The Yampa Valley and surrounding
area contain several geothermal hot springs, from which the city derives
its name. The city is named after the Steamboat Spring, located near the
present-day library. The spring itself was so named because its bubbling
sounded like a steamboat to early settlers. Unfortunately, construction
and blasting for railroad silenced the chugging spring in 1908. Locals
take pride in the name of their town, as evidenced by the humorously named
Steamboat Yacht Club, a local restaurant location on the Yampa River.

Though there are no steamboats
in the town, except for an allegorical "steamboat" playground in West Lincoln
Park, it does offer two hot springs that are open to the public. The largest
is at the Old Town Hot Springs, with multiple pools and two slides. Located
in the hills a few miles out of town is Strawberry Park Hot Springs, with
two pools and natural rock features. Strawberry Park Hot Springs offers
excellent stargazing opportunities due to the lack of ambient light.
The Yampa River flows through
the middle of town.
