This weekend’s (November 23-24) big snow storm assures great conditions for Red River and Taos Ski Valley opening days, November 27 and 28 respectively. Sipapu has been open since November 16 and Angel Fire will wait till December 13 to start the lifts. Nine Taos lodgers are ready and geared up with early season rates and special events planned for the holidays, Thanksgiving through Christmas.
The special ski-and-lodging packages can be viewed at Taos Pillow & Powder Packages, an online vacation specials site that provides a fast and easy way to book a winter vacation. The site also features current snow conditions (pictured here) for all four Northern New Mexico ski areas — Angel Fire, Red River, Sipapu, and Taos – and a sweepstakes.
