This place was recommended based on an Airbnb group who visited as a family and were excited to have found fossils during their outing. I have not been, yet, but it sounds incredibly fun and cool for people of all ages.

Cool non-profit for animal lovers

As a wolf lover myself, I visited CWWC prior to purchasing this home, and thoroughly enjoyed their tours. Plus, all tours are donations which go to the upkeep of their animals, program and facilities.

Hiking

Incredibly close trailhead with some beautiful hikes. Note: These trails often still have a good amount of packed down snow - crampons are advised.

Groceries

Close grocery store with a reasonable selection, for it's relatively small size. There is also a small beer/wine/liquor store next door.
