“Our family has fallen in love with Angel Fire. We can get there in under three hours and there’s so much for families to do including s’mores on weekends, sledding, tubbing, night skiing, star gazing events, and so much more. It’s a great spot for beginning skiers but also has some challenging runs for the more experienced.”
-Lauren H.

“It’s not a [fancy] place, but all the Westside kids love to gather at the hilly park behind the Taylor Ranch Library to sled when we get that special dusting of snow.”
-Dena F.
