Steamboat will have its 42nd traditional rite of spring once again and they’re inviting you to join the fun. The Cardboard Classic is a creative and hilarious way to say goodbye to winter and officially prepare as warmer weather returns.
This is a great way to show off your hidden talent for arts and crafts. Participants are required to make their own cardboard crafts for this unique race. Bring out your duct tape, markers, strings, balloons, and other fun decorations to make your ride stand out. Then watch each race as it stampedes to the finish line.
This fun and crazy downhill event will take place on Saturday, April 12th, 2025 at the base of Steamboat Ski Resort in Gondola Square. The event starts at 9 am and finishes two hours later with an awards ceremony to follow right after.

- Coca Cola Classic
