Red River Ski Area is kicking off the weekend with a fresh blanket of winter magic! After 10" of new snow over the past 72 hours, the mountain boasts a solid base depth of 20 inches and a season total of 30 inches so far. The Platinum lift is running, along with Gold, Little Blue, and Rug Rat, giving skiers and riders access to 11 open trails, 7 of which are freshly groomed for smooth carving.
With machine-groomed surfaces and a sunny Saturday forecast topping out at 31°F, it’s a picture-perfect day to hit the slopes. The resort is operating at 17% terrain capacity, and while some lifts and trails remain closed, the open runs offer a great mix for early-season turns.
Whether you're chasing corduroy or soaking in the crisp mountain air, Red River is serving up a classic New Mexico ski vibe—windy, bright, and full of promise. Let the weekend adventures begin!
