Born in Port Townsend and raised in Skykomish, Nagel was a third-generation logger when skiing was gaining popularity in the 1940s. He later ran the only gas station in Skykomish and was a ski instructor at Stevens Pass until 1962, when the new Crystal Mountain opened near Mount Rainier and the family relocated to Enumclaw. Nagel headed the ski school and race program; the racing school was featured in Sports Illustrated in 1963, with older daughter Cathy, 14, on the cover.
Younger daughter Judy Nagel was an Olympian and World Cup racer. At age sixteen in 1968, she led the Olympic slalom after the first run, but did not finish the second.
