“Mankind historically has been harsh on the environment,” says Jeff Temple, whose father, James Temple, founded Steamboat Ski Resort and who along with Elk River Partners is developing the 1,700-plus acre Marabou site into an environmentally friendly residential development of 62 homesteads. “Perhaps our most meaningful legacy at Marabou will be to create a new sustainability model for other developments to consider.”
