FAQs
Q: What is the best time of year to visit?
A: Depends on what you want to do. The ranch is open year round and close to a ski resort. The summer is great for outdoor activities, hiking and star gazing
Q: What should we bring?
A: Just the appropriate clothing for the season you're visiting. It's at a high elevation so even in the summer we suggest sweaters and light jackets just in case. Make sure to bring good hiking boots and an extra pair of shoes for relaxing. Sunscreen and a good pair of sunglasses is always a good idea as well. A small backpack for hiking is suggested.
