Taos Ski Valley

Taos Ski Valley is situated in a huge basin and looks a bit like the Alps, and is fortunate enough to get blanketed by an average of 325 inches of snowfall per year. Ernie Blake, a Swiss native, founded the ski area along with his wife Rhoda, and friend Pete Totemoff in 1955. To this day the resort is still family owned and operated and has a heritage that is strictly European.

In the winter, skiing and snowboarding is only 18 miles away from Taos with day and evening shuttles that connect the town to the mountain. Many people opt to stay in the high-desert town, not only to save money but for all the diversity it has to offer. However, for those that want to be based at a mountain resort, Taos Ski Valley is a continental freestyle ski resort that offers all the services needed for a complete ski vacation.
