That first ski run where the quad chair goes up - man is it scary. I've been on that chair when the frost is still on the seats of the chair - holding on for dear life.
Did you know that you can go over the mountain and into Red River's Upper Valley? There has always been talk about completing the road from Taos Ski Valley into Red River, but it has never happened. Tree huggers and such stop it. Politics are also involved.
Hi Lou. I want no part of being on a ski lift .. ever. haha
No! I had no idea you could go over the mountain and into the valley at Red River! I would think a road connecting Taos and Red River Ski Area would be a big boost for Red River skiing.
The road would be a boost for RR skiing - therein lies the political part of the problem.
