you won’t believe it. The striking surroundings of the New Mexico mountains and the incredibly good trails have snow people coming from all over. This is a delightful ski hill with scores of different trails; there's absolutely no way to get bored here. The peaks
of New Mexico covered in great snow are always fine for snowboarding or skiing. Snowboarding and skiing in this part of New Mexico is a wonderful thing to do throughout the snow season. The peaks of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains make for a fine vista. The best piece of information on this resort is of course the trailmap of Red River on this page.
