In 2004 as in several previous years a group of advanced literature high school students visited Angel Fire for a first-hand experience of what it was like in those bygone days of a simpler life. They put together a pamphlet detailing their experiences.

See what they had to say about their visit to Angel Fire at Thunder Ridge Muzzleloading.

See video at the Angel Fire Chamber of Commerce.
