Question
What's the deal with the altitude?
Answer
While we hope you're breathless from the beauty of the ceremony and surroundings, it's more likely you will be from the altitude. The town of Steamboat Springs and the base area of the ski resort sit at 6,900' above sea level. Our wedding ceremony and reception will be at the top of Mt. Werner, at 9,080’ above sea level. If you are traveling from out of state and/or lower elevation, please HYDRATE more than you think you need. Hydrate before you travel, while traveling, and once you’re here. If you know you struggle with altitude sickness, and you are able, we recommend arriving a few days ahead of time to adjust to the altitude. If you are drinking alcohol, you will likely feel the effects much faster with less alcohol than you usually consume, so please pace yourself. Typically one drink at altitude has the effects of 2 drinks at sea level. Liquid IV is your friend :)
Question
Is there Uber or Lyft in Steamboat Springs? How do people get around town?
Answer
Ride share services like Uber or Lyft are not consistently available in Steamboat. However, Steamboat has a free city bus, many lodging properties have shuttle services, and there are local taxi companies. Free City Bus: We highly recommend taking advantage of the Steamboat Springs free bus system. The bus runs between the ski area and downtown, as well as most lodging, hotels, condominiums, restaurants, grocery, and entertainment locations. Lodging Property Transportation: Many local lodging properties offer private shuttle service to take guests around town. The extent of the service varies by property. We recommend calling your selected lodging property directly to inquire about shuttle service. Local Taxi Services: - Go Alpine Taxi - Ski Town Transportation
Question
How do we get to the wedding ceremony/reception?
Answer
The ceremony and reception will take place at the top of Mt. Werner at Thunderhead Lodge at Steamboat Ski Resort. To access Thunderhead Lodge and the top of Mt. Werner, all guests will ride the Steamboat Gondola (~10 min scenic ride). The gondola loads in Steamboat Square (2305 Mt. Werner Circle). If you are not staying within walking distance of the base area, the Steamboat Springs bus system has a stop at Ski Time Square, a short walk to the gondola. After the reception, the last bus departing Ski Time Square is shortly after 11pm. On the day of the wedding, guests will have free parking in the Gondola Square Parking Garage. At the kiosk, scroll the list of events for "Follansbee - Loustaunau Wedding" and enter access code 7111. The access code will reduce the parking rate to $0 and will be valid for free parking until the 11:59am the next morning.
Question
What time should I arrive at the venue?
Answer
The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30pm. Please plan to arrive at the bottom of the gondola by 5pm to allow time for riding up to the venue. The gondola ride typically takes 13 minutes.

Feel free to dress it up or down as you see fit! Wedding: Colorado Cocktail The ceremony will be outside at the top of a mountain with an indoor reception, so please dress accordingly.

Question
What will the weather be like?
Answer
At this time of year, temperatures generally remain comfortable for outdoor activities, though evening temperatures drop significantly once the sun sets. Daytime highs typically range between 70°F and 80°F while overnight lows often fall into the 40s or high 30s. Skies are often clear and sunny, though early September can occasionally see brief afternoon rain showers.
Question
Will the events be indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Saturday's welcome party at Mythology Distillery will be mostly outdoors. The indoor space holds about 30 people, but the outdoor patio includes two large covered and heated pergolas, a fire pit, and more seating. The wedding ceremony will be held outdoors on Thunderhead Lawn at the top of Mt. Werner followed by an outdoor cocktail hour on Thunderhead Lodge's sundeck overlooking the Yampa Valley. Dinner and reception will take place inside Thunderhead Lodge.
