Super Seniors: Yampa Valley senior profiles
Super powers: Dean Anthony has been a member of the Steamboat Springs community for 50 years and has recorded at least 70 days of skiing each season. He also never misses an opportunity for a lake day with his custom, flame-painted boat and collection of jet skis. Dean and his wife, Pat, are avid golfers and extreme Steamboat concert attendees. As a former ocean jet ski tester in the 1960s and commercial airline pilot, Dean is a true adrenaline junkie. If you don’t see Dean on the slopes or at the lake, he is probably helping his fellow Routt County residents with chores around their homes.
