Steady Brook
The Town of Steady Brook is located approximately 6 km east of the city of Corner
Brook.
In 1927, the Newfoundland Power and Paper
Company conducted a survey of the lower
Humber River in search of a place for a holding
boom to begin logging operations. This survey
initiated movements and spawned the
beginning of the community.
An area of undeniable scenic beauty, Steady
Brook was already largely
dependent on providing
accommodation and other services to travelers by
1960, when the Corner Brook Ski Club began
developing Marble Mountain, opened to the public
in 1963.
The community of Steady Brook has
become known as the location of the Marble
Mountain ski resort. The expansion of the ski
facility has been paralleled by a growing number of
tourist cabins and other services at Steady Brook.
