Silverado. Goldrush. Lucky Strike. You’ll find a gold mine of great runs in this old mining town turned “Ski Town of the Southwest.” At Red River Ski and Snowboard Area the attitude is laid back, the people are friendly, and with an average of 18 feet of snow each year and plenty of sun, conditions are great. With our mixed... terrain, ski-through replica of a mining camp, and terrain park, our mountain keeps skiers and boarders of all abilities entertained and challenged.
With a blanket of sparkling snow and blue skies overhead, Red River is a winter wonderland. Bundle up, grab your gear—or rent it here—and get ready for cool outdoor adventures. Red River Ski and Snowboard Area, located right in the center of town, is a short walk from most lodges. Read more

Red River was ok, the mountain was pretty small and the runs were so groomed that the snow was packed/icy. Snowboarded the whole mountain in a day and ended up driving to Taos the next day. But other wise a good mountain for beginners with friendly staff.

Liftopia is great. Saved some good money to spend elsewhere. Be aware that the Ski Services Office at Red River is not at the Face or main lift. You have to go up to the ski school/restaurant/ski rental area where the smaller lifts are to find that office for checking in vouchers. They are great once you find them though.

Man O man!! What a great time we had. My sister and her family along with my brother joined my mother and son here over the Thanksgiving holiday. Everyone has been very accomidating to say the least and both my nephews got to play in the snow. Thanks Red River for offering so much. Mows it time to do it again with my oldest. Woohoo I can't wait.

Make sure to check out the whole mountain, some of the best skiing is way off the main trails. Also since they make alot of their own snow there do not bring powder ski's! lol

Love Red River.
The best, cleanest and freshest place to eat is at Roberto's Fiesta restaraunt.
Best place to stay is Claim Jumper Aframes- right across the street from lift.
And Red River has a coupon floating around the internet for Buy one get one free lift ticket until March !st.
The snow is great, lift lines= NONE.
Good place for families and the Playhouse is so much FUN! Was there Feb 19-22.
Oh and everyone is so friendly!
Oh what else is good.....Avalanche bar from chocolate factory .
At the Der Mart they have CHOCOLate Wine! Hello? Need I say more? guys, start up the fireplace and cozy up with your gal and relax.
Good Runs, Awesome conditions right now!
