Between 1976 and 1988 Steamboat Springs High School students captured the oral histories of prominent Routt County citizens and published them in a magazine titled Three Wire Winter. Twenty-four issues went to press before the program ended and the collection was deeded to the Tread of Pioneers Museum. In 2015, the Bud Werner Memorial Library and the Tread of Pioneers Museum partnered to feature Three Wire Winter and its wealth of oral history interviews, magazine articles, photos and other documents through this digital archive.
