A charming little town in the Rocky Mountains, it has a past as a mining settlement and a present as a tourist destination. On the southern side of the valley is a ski resort with hiking trails, and further east, untouched areas are located beyond the ski slopes. On the northern side of the valley, there are hiking trails and plenty of nature.
