With over 60 years of operation as a family-owned business, this ski resort delivers real skiing and riding in New Mexico with wide open groomers, park laps, and steep powder-filled trees. In the summer, visitors can enjoy a cool mountain retreat with an aerial adventure ropes course, zip line, and scenic lift rides. Mountain bikers and hikers can use the top of the lift as a departure point for numerous trails in the Carson National Forest. Visitors can also relax on the large deck at some restaurants with views of Gold Hill and the Carson National Forest. The resort is family-friendly, with affordable lift prices and a nice little show one night. The backside of the mountain is a great area for kids to ski on the greens. The guest services are helpful and kind, providing information and assistance with online waivers for ski lessons. Visitors have had magical experiences learning to ski, with excellent instructors helping both children and adults.
