Paul Madeen is a passionate snowboarder and mountain biker who has built his lifestyle around outdoor adventure and seasonal freedom. In the 2024–25 season, he was one of 11 individuals honored at Steamboat Ski Resort in Colorado for making at least one run every single day—148 consecutive days on the mountain. A Montana native with a forestry degree from Missoula and a background in organic farming, Paul moved to Steamboat seven years ago to pursue his love of snowboarding full-time. He started a private car service that allows him to work winter mornings after hitting the slopes early. In summer, he mountain bikes across the West—from Moab to Montana—often traveling solo in his camper. Over 50 and thriving, Paul has transformed his life from a strictly-disciplined life of organic farming to seasonal freedom, adventure, and health. With his kids grown, he’s embraced the lifestyle he once only dreamed about—riding or snowboarding nearly every day, year-round.
