PHOTOS: Postponed Soda Pop Slalom is better late than never

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS — This year’s Soda Pop Slalom, which features budding local skiers making their way down Howelsen Hill Ski Area, was held Friday after being postponed from the annual Winter Carnival in February. It was a much different looking event, with limited spectators, but the participants seemed to still have fun.
