Are you ready to experience a new ski adventure? Then Taos is the trip for you. While it has traditionally been known as a challenging mountain, intermediates and beginners will delight in the miles of groomers and runs off every single chair. The spectacular views of the rugged mountains are not just for the experts – everyone can enjoy! The mountain stats list 110 trails, 24% beginner, 25% intermediate, 51% expert. The historic town of Taos is just 18 miles away, but the ski village where we are staying offers many restaurants, from pizza to fine dining, plus shops and galleries. We’re staying at the ski in/out Snakedance condos offering old world alpine traditions with modern conveniences. For folks who would like to improve their skills, Taos offers all kinds of affordable lessons. The most famous is their Ski Week, 6 days of 2-hour group lessons for only $300. It’s a real deal. Taos boasts: “Some ski resorts are manufactured for the masses. This is not one of them.” Let’s experience the charm!
