This is a ski resort, but during the off season they still run their lifts for hiking, mtn biking, and alpine slides. Check website for current prices, but usually it's not much to get a ride on the ski lift and get a view of most of the valley from the top. Gorgeous 360 views!

Definitely a local favorite! It's been around a long time, and most of the old timers come here. Good food, and giant portions! Still has a diner feel to it. One of our family favorites! Expect a wait if you are in a large party so plan accordingly. So worth the wait though!
