Ive always went boarding in feb-march but im going in december this year and was wondering if there is alot of snow there during december? i assumed there would be plenty but lately ive heard from a few people there is hardly any?

i dont mind skiing on man made snow but does it snow alot in december around the touse(sp?)/angelfire area?

I've only been to Angelfire & Taos in Feb/Mar as well, but I seem to remember hearing they have to make a lot of snow in early winter.

damn, my favorite run will be closed again then if its man made snow

i wish taos would open up for snowboarders

bodacious @ angelfire is the best snowboarding run they have but it was closed this past year due to no snow march 12-18. i went in 03' end of feb. and you couldnt have asked for a better week

It's spelled Taos

It just depends if we have a wet winter or not. Sometimes we get good snow storms through out Nov-Dec. Sometimes we don't get the snow till Jan-March. My advice, check the snow report on one of our news channels before you go.

Yeah, good call. Although right now it's been pretty wet, so hopefully that will carry into the winter.

i was thinking of moving to new mexico or close to it in a couple years, good idea or bad idea???

Don't buy a house in los alamos, especially the way things are going right now. On the other hand it is gorgeous.

I skied last year to Taos from December 18-24, and the snow was great.

there's plenty of snow in northern new mexico by December. Angelfire should be open by then. Taos and Santa Fe usually get good snow by then as well but Taos is not open to snowboarders. Don't expect good snow in the Sandia mountains in Albuquerque.

Is it overdeveloping or getting rundown?
