Skiing

Santa Fe Ski Basin is 16 miles from the center of Santa Fe with a base elevation of 10,350 feet. A Triple chairlift to 12,075 feet. It is not well known, but Santa Fe is one of the best backcountry or wilderness skiing areas in the US. It doesn’t appear that way from the ski basin, but just over the ridge from the 12,000+ foot chairlift there are steep bowls, narrow chutes and big cliffs. There are no forest service restrictions in these areas, but one should always use caution. Whiteouts, avalanches, and disorientation have led to serious problems for inexperienced backcountry skiers. Before venturing into these areas you should know where Nambe Chutes, Lake Peak, the Santa Fe watershed, and Big Tesuque lie with relation to the lifts. The Santa Fe watershed is closed to the public. Wandering into the Pecos Wilderness area can also create access problems. The above web site provides information about backcountry skiing in these areas. Be sure and inform someone of your intended route in case a search must be initiated.
