Powder On Opening Weekend In Taos Ski Valley...


Well opening weekend at Taos Ski Valley proved to be pretty nice for the powder-hounds! While everyone was at home stuffing them self with turkey and stuffing, mother nature was cooking up her own recipe. One part cold, one part water, two parts high elevation. The end result... a foot of fresh snow for all that ventured out to Taos Ski Valley for opening weekend.

Quickly those extra lb's that were packed on the day before were burned away as skiers ripped up the new stashes. Plenty of snowboarders also poured off the shuttles too now that Taos is allowing snowboarding on the slopes. Amazingly enough, there was no tackling of the illegal trespassers as there may have been in the past. They just went about their business and no one seemed to care. The more the merrier!!

Got a great event coming up in Taos if you are coming in the next coming weeks... the Lighting of Ledoux Street. It's a great Taos event and a "Can't Miss". If you are thinking of coming out at the last minute to see it, check out this great deal at the Historic Taos Inn, which is walking distance to the event.
