Snow Stadiums: 21 Iconic College Venues Known for Winter Football

20. Folsom Field (Colorado) – Boulder, Colorado

Set against the majestic Flatirons, Folsom Field transforms into a winter paradise when the Rocky Mountain weather arrives. Home to the University of Colorado Buffaloes, the stadium’s altitude of around 5,400 feet compounds the challenges visiting teams face. A sudden snowfall can drastically affect on-field strategy, particularly when gusty mountain winds join the fray. Yet, the view—from snow-capped peaks overlooking the stadium to the fresh white layer on the turf—can be breathtaking. Buffaloes fans embrace the brisk conditions, layering up in black and gold to energize the team and showcase just how magical winter football can be at altitude.
