Someone who knows more about the history of the area than I do (probably someone local) needs to flesh out the section on establishment and early history of Steamboat Springs, which seems to imply that the town was always all about recreation. My grandfather worked there before World War I, both for the Utah Coal Co. and as a surveyor for the railroad (Union Pacific, I think). I have a copy of his WWI draft registration card, filled out at Steamboat Springs in 1917. It's evident that the first settlers had industry more on their minds than skiing. -- Michael K.

The article currently claims that a sawmill was established before the first permanent Anglo Saxon residents and founders moved there - contradiction? -- Mgibby5 ( talk) 20:55, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
I've removed a large chunk of the "controversy" section via this edit, per WP:WEIGHT and WP:NOTNEWS, as it was bordering on POV pushing. Mention of the issue is appropriate; but detailed council minutes were major overkill and placed undu weight on those issues compared to the overall article. --- Barek ( talk • contribs) - 18:13, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
