Skiing in New Mexico
Skiing in New Mexico is the answer for all winter sports enthusiasts who want to strap on their skis one last time before the German summer of 2010.
Taos instead of Garmisch: skiing in New Mexico
Taos, in the north of New Mexico in the southern Rocky Mountains, is the state’s winter sports hub. The ski areas here are located at elevations ranging from 2,400 to 3,650 meters. Skiing in Taos means plenty of challenging black runs, lots of winter sunshine, and short lift queues, making skiing here a pure pleasure. In addition to skiing in New Mexico, you can enjoy a wide range of leisure activities, including snowmobiling, ice skating, cross-country skiing, horse-drawn sleigh rides, ice fishing, horseback riding, and torchlight hikes.

Why not head to New Mexico for a skiing holiday? Through the end of April 2010, this sunny US state offers not only vast deserts and unspoiled landscapes, but also challenging slopes in some of the most interesting winter sports regions in the United States.
Besides Taos Ski Valley, New Mexico’s largest ski area, with 13 lifts, 110 trails, and a fun park, the state boasts other interesting ski areas where you can still hit the slopes through the end of April 2010. The Ski Santa Fe area in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains is 40 kilometers from the capital, Santa Fe, and is one of the highest ski areas in the United States. Red River Ski Area has been a destination for skiers from around the world for more than 45 years. Sipapu Ski and Summer Resort offers special deals for skiers who make plans at short notice, while Pajarito Mountain Resort in the Jemez Mountains has been operating as a ski area since the 1950s.
