Things To Do
At the end of Hiland rd (less than 1 mile from the house) you will find a small sign marking the access point to Harp Mountain. This is a large bowl with a variety of terrain and aspects that makes for a great spring skiing location in the afternoon sun. A short hike in the summer will put you right in the midst of wild mountain flowers and challenging terrain just a few hundred feet from the road.

Eating Out
The deck has amazing views (sometimes even of Denali) when the weather is nice. It’s worth making a reservation as waits are typically 2 hours without one.
