Hell yeah! Gonna be here in a week. Stoked for the vid bro
This was a great video, excited for part B. One thing though is powder horn bowl, and White feather gully by lift 4 are steep drops with some pretty big moguls that would easily be a black at any other New Mexico resort, hell even Colorado. Poco gusto is pretty easy black but a bad catwalk back to lift 2 as you have to go all the way past lift 2 and go back in through the lines/gates. Walkyries chute, North American, and Ernie's are all very tuff. Blitz is easier than reforma. That was way more than 1 thing.
Tbh I just lost track of what was what with all of those little runs in and around 2 and 8. Thank you for clarifying!
@@SRGSkiing your all good! After Taos any other New Mexico ski resorts? Three is plenty but Ski Santa Fe is fully open with The best tree skiing in the state.
Nope, wasn't able to make it to Santa Fe or Ruidoso this trip, but hopefully sometime in the next couple of seasons.
@@trioproductions5403 Red River is great, very user friendly, great runs for all levels, and all around family fun. We have free Town Challenge Ski Races every Thursday, it’s a blast! The town is only one mile long, free shuttle service and everything walking distance. Home sweet home!
more haters guides please 🙏🏻
How's the steepness/difficulty compared to a Snowbird or a Jackson?
The extremes at Taos I would consider equally on par for Jackson and Snowbird
So I guess a Massanutten black diamond would be considered a Taos green…
Is that even a question?
@@SRGSkiing Nah, just an observation. Virginia skiing is nowhere near as good as the Rockies skiing.
What size is your ski length?
I mean, length depends on height, but I'm 6 foot skiing on 171cm twin tips
@@SRGSkiing Which skis? I want to buy it.
I'm on Dynastar M-Free 99s
@@SRGSkiing thank you
@whoisthe1412 I'm an Atomic girl and have a quiver of skis. Length depends on height and ability, I ski on advanced to expert womens skis. I'm 5' ft. and race on Atomic GS skis 158cm with Turning Radius 14. My all mountain skis are 152cm, multi-radius sidecut with TR 12.3. I love power shopping skis and have helped many people pick a great pair for a perfect match. Skiing is the ultimate!!!!
Awesome mountain, it’s my Home Hill, and best kept secret in ski country! ⛷️❄️ TAOS a 4 Letter word for Steep! And yes, you’re right, beginners should stick to Red River, my other Home Hill, and Angel Fire, love them all.
