Rod's President at Cowboy Downhill in Steamboat Springs CO

Scott Hartle, the president of Rod's Western Palace, was in Steamboat Springs Colorado to watch the Cowboy Downhill on January 19, 2010.

They invite rodeo cowboys who are participating in the Denver Stock Show Rodeo to participate in two competitions. In the first they are paired up in two’s against each other and the clock. They ski through some ski gates, over a jump, through some more gates, grab a rope and rope a girl, and then saddle a horse and cross the finish line for the best time – all on skis or snowboard. Needless to say this is hilarious since most of them are not skiers/boarders in the first place. For the second event all of the cowboys go back to the top and all race together to the bottom for the fastest time. This is like putting 60 horses in the derby. Most do not make it down due to the wrecks. This year only one was hauled off on the sled. It is a fun day for them as they ski the mountain all day and they are required to wear western hats and rodeo chaps.
