Anne - beginner skier ⛷️

Fantastic ski resort. The road up is icy and slippery. Cars slid off on ice where water melted off the mountain, then froze in the shadow. Got early snow in 2024. They were able to get workers and lift operators together and open before Thanksgiving. Convenient location next to the large city of Albuquerque. Great backyard ski resort. Sandias are a fun local mountain range.
