Taos, NM
January 28 - February 4, 2012

Taos Ski Valley is one of the gems of North American skiing, with a stunning mountain setting in Northern New Mexico. Although it has a reputation as an experts-only destination, Taos is an ideal choice for any skier serious about improving his or her technique (and we do mean skier, because snowboards are still forbidden there).

Located in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains - the southern tip of the Rocky Mountains - Angel Fire resort offers a tremendous range of winter and summer activities. You can choose from skiing and snowboarding, snowmobiling, tubing and snowshoeing in the winter, and enjoy mountain biking, golf, horseback riding and more in the summer. The resort has a full-service nordic center complete with ski and snowshoe rentals, and at night there's a lighted tubing park to enjoy. Experts skiers and snowboarders are not forgotten -- hike accessed trails in the Back Basin offer some of the steepest skiing and riding around.

The Snake-dance Condo’s Offer premiere slope-side two bedrooms, two bathrooms condos, situated just 10 yards from the Lift One quad, the main access point to the mountain. Condos include full kitchen, wireless internet, fireplaces, etc. This Prime location is in the center of the Village at Taos Ski Valley and within walking distance to village shops and restaurants.

    The Snake-dance features:
  • Completely remodeled restaurant and bar
  • Spa & fitness facility
  • Ski Valet with ski storage and boot dryers

Sorry, No Snowboarders.
