Stadium

Stadium is a short, easy cross-country ski route in the Boulder Ranger District of the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests in Colorado. It is a 0.2-mile trip that gains about 12 feet of elevation, with the high point at 9,361 feet and the low at 9,342 feet. The climb is barely worth the name, and the route sits among a cluster of similar short loops, with the nearest neighbors Dixie and For Pete's Sake each about 0.1 mile away. Winter is the natural season for this kind of ski run. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Boulder show January highs around 29°F with lows near 12°F, while summer brings highs in the upper 60s. That station sits about 467 feet higher than the route, so conditions here may run a little milder. The surrounding area offers more to explore. Eldora Summer Slab is a climbing area about 1.9 miles away, West Magnolia Campground is about 3.1 miles off, and paddlers can head to Middle Boulder Creek, roughly 4.6 miles away.
