This is probably the most hiked trail in the area, and for good reason. Although it's a relatively steep hike up most of the way, the views offered at the top are stunning. This can usually be hiked year around, with parking along the road surrounding the trail head.

Drinks & Nightlife
If you like pinball, this is a mandatory stop. There are a dozen good quality pinball machines here. Pinball not your thing, how about pool or foosball? No, then just sit back and watch the game over a cold beer and a plate of fish and chips.

Entertainment & Activities
For just $5, ride up the lift and have a slide down the alpine slid. It's more fun than it looks! You can go tubing here in the winter too, but honestly I would just go for the slide alone.
