Taos is a fantastic mountain for intermediate to expert skiers. Double blacks will want to hike the ridge when it's open. They do have a good ski school, but in my experience it isn't really a beginners mountain. The green trails are normally narrow traverses that tend to rattle beginners because there is little room to maneuvre & the more advanced skiers are typically flying by all around them. The town of Taos is small & quiet. The food is great but not Mexican per se. Be ready for New Mexican food, covered in red or green chile sauce. Get a red chile breakfast burrito somewhere before you head out, there's no better breakfast for a day of skiing!
