Snowy Weekend in Northern New Mexico


In Town

Red River, New Mexico
11.15.09


On the Mountain

Beautiful and sunny in Oceanside - winter in Red River.
This town is on the Enchanted Circle, north/east of Taos and about 2000 feet higher in elevation.  Such a beautiful place, an alpine village.  The ski lifts come right down into the town, no going up to the slopes here, just step outside, walk 25 ft and get on the lift.



Taos Plaza 11.15.09

You can see a little snow on the roof of the gazebo - must be cold as it's almost 4pm and it hasn't burned off yet.


Looking at the peak of Taos Ski mountain - Wheeler Peak approx. 6000 feet higher than the plaza.

Another Beautiful Day in Paradise


Here's the view this morning from the Taos Mountain webcam - looks like a nice fall morning with a little of last weeks snow still on top.
