    Me and the boys are going skiing in New Mexico around Albuquerque. If anyone could suggest any resorts to go to I would greatly appreciate it.

    Well, I have to say my favorite place was Angel fire. It feels like a smaller Breckenridge, especially on the slopes. New Mexico is great for skiing on a budget. Costs about half as much as anywhere in Colorado. Hope that helped.

    Mulder,

    My parents live in Albuquerque. I just got back from skiing in Angel Fire. Great place. It's a 3-3.5 hour drive from Albuquerque. Santa Fe is around 1-1.5 hours (to the ski resort). That is supposed to be good skiing. If Sandia in Albuquerque actually has snow, it's not bad at all. Unfortunately, they normally aren't entirely covered.

    If you want a great place to eat in Albuquerque, I suggest The Frontier on Central across from the UNM campus. Or the fast food chain named after me, Blake!

    Have fun, and if you need anything else, let me know.

    ...if you go to Taos, definately eat at Michael's Kitchen and order the Stuffed Sopapilla with green chile stew.

    Now, have I made it obvious enough that I LOVE TO EAT!!??!!

    Taos is definitely worth going to... the place seems to have a high number of expert slopes and their beginner slopes are like intermediate at other places worth going to if you consider yourself an "expert"
