Things to do
Indian Hot Springs
302 Soda Creek RdThis smaller ski area is a local favorite. You can still ski here for less than $100 per day!! It’s located just east of the Continental Divide. If you’re a seasoned skier/snowboarder take lift 9 for incredible views west of the Continental Divide.

Really fun old timey train ride. Great for children. Beware if you have a fear of heights. The train goes over a very high bridge.

Don’t park in the downtown area.
Parking in the downtown area is now a pay to park situation. We recommend the short walk into town instead.
