100th Steamboat Winter Carnival

CMC Steamboat Springs student Ben Saheb has been busy with his video camera this past month.  Here’s his take on the town’s 100th annual Winter Carnival, a beloved Steamboat event. Catch more of his work at cmcben.wordpress.com.

The Winter Carnival is a hallmark Steamboat event that is more than twice the age of the ski resort. It was started by the ranching community back in 1913 to bring people the community together after a long winter.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Winter Carnival and the following video is of the  Children’s Ski Jouring event. This event is one of the most popular and it includes horses towing children down main street at high speeds. Enjoy!
