Conveniently located on NM-536, on the east side of the Sandia Mountain Range, you’ll find parking readily available at the base area when you arrive.
Preparing For The Cold
Dress In Layers
Start with a moisture-wicking base layer, add a warm fleece or wool mid-layer, and finish with a windproof, waterproof outer shell. Wear easily adjustable layers as temperatures can change.
Waterproof Outerwear
Waterproof jacket and pants are essential to stay dry and comfortable. Choose gear with sealed seams and breathable fabric to block moisture while regulating temperature.
Goggles or Sunglasses
Protect your eyes with goggles for the best coverage against wind, snow, and UV rays. If goggles aren’t available, opt for UV-protective sunglasses.
Helmets
Safety first! Helmets protect your head and keep you warm. Bring your own or rent one from our fleet.

Food And Beverages
Staying fueled is key to making the most of your day on the slopes! We recommend packing snacks and water to keep your energy up throughout your visit.
Forgot to bring something? No problem! Our base area offers a variety of food and beverages to keep you refreshed and ready for more fun.
