North of town where the valley flattens out toward the airfield, wind scours some ground bare and buries the rest. Novus works both faces of the Steamboat Springs year on exactly that kind of terrain — plowing, shoveling and de-icing while winter is in charge, then mowing, trimming and running spring and fall cleanups when it is not. New snow at first light has a way of making a cleared driveway look like an accomplishment, and it is one. In July the same ground gets cut in even passes and edged along the concrete. The name means new; the practice is showing up again, and again, and again.
