Hi,
My name is Dunte, I'm 27 years old and was born and raised in California (near San Francisco)! I'm moving out there to Steamboat January 1st, I'm wondering if there are any particulars about the town I should know about ahead of time. Please feel free to tell me about anything, I'm very anxious to learn as much as I can!

Bring all the money you have. You will need it.
You can die if you try to spend the night outside, including in your car.
Read up on "layering."
Obey speed limits on mountain roads. If it says 25, it means 25, and that's especially true in the winter when you may find black ice on the road at night and in the shadows at any time of day.
Watch for deer, elk, antelope, etc. along the roads. If you hit one, it can come through the windshield and you can die. Again, obey the speed limits because they really do list the maximum safe speeds in areas prone to snow, ice and animal crossings.
You will need 3 or 4 days to get used to the altitude. If you get a bad headache, nausea, etc., it can mean your brain is swelling up from altitude sickness. It's best to spend at least one night at a lower altitude on the way up. Drink lots of water and eat red meat to build up blood cells and deal with the lower oxygen content (which you will feel if you are coming from anywhere near sea level).
It's too late to find a place to live unless you have $500,000 to buy a house.
Call ahead for job prospects and rates of pay if you need to work to live here. Basically, you can't live on what you can make here if you need to work to live here.
I think that's about it.

Wow!! Hmmm, sounds like there's a ton to look forward too!?!

Oh, I left one out. I have come upon the scene of several minor accidents where there was an SUV on its side, top, or well off the road and stranded in deep snow. In every case, the sheepish driver was standing by the road with his hands in his pockets, and the first words out of his mouth were, "I had it in four-wheel drive."
Four wheel drive only helps you go faster. It does not help you stop.

"p.s. bring a woman", hell bring a couple if you can. Kind of reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw a couple of years back: Be Kind To Locals, Share Your Wife! Lots of luck to ya...

One of the recreational meccas of the universe; made even more enjoyable by absolutely breathtaking natural beauty; the people (full-time residents) are as cool as you will ever encounter at any resort destination; knee-deep in an economic/development boom which is driving the already high cost of living even higher; if you want to do more than live hand-to-mouth, be prepared to secure at least one part-time job to supplement whatever your full-time gig might be; and unless you will be equipped with something close to a 6-figure income or a trust fund, I hope you like roommates.

Check out human resources on the mountain and try to get a part time job, it doesn't pay too well but its a good way to get a pass. I love working second shift , lets me ski all day.If your from the San Fransisco area the cost of living here shouldn't be much of a shocker. My main advice would be to stand back and observe for a little while, I've seen a lot of new commers get caught up in stupid things that lead to trouble. oh yeah, if you drink and drive you'll get caught. take the free bus or call a cab. the easiest way to get arrested in this town is doing something illegal in your car. do you have a place to live yet? p.s. bring a woman.
