Ruidoso

     It's been two years since I've realIy snowboarded. It's my favorite thing,  but due to a minor snowboarding injury (broken tailbone) I missed my opportunity to go-until this last weekend...

     So I was torn between going to Cloudcroft, NM and Ruidoso, NM, but when I found out that Ski Apache had a Gondola, it was a no brainer.

The prices are very high and there wasn't much snow, but the snow they did have was not bad. It was warm warm warm, and there were some muddy and snowless spots but I like snowboarding enough I could care less. Whatever you do, don't rent from Ski Apache-that would be $$$. Rather, I'd recommend going to Saint Bernard Ski where you can get a much better deal. Plus the staff was awesome.

  The view from the top was awesome too-even if you don't snowboard, I'd recommend getting a Goldola ticket just to see that.

Really I liked everything about the trip. Ruidoso is such a nice place, I didn't want to leave the beauty

The Village Inn Lodge was so cozy with its fireplace and hot tub (and for cheap!)

And to spend time 

with friends was so awesome, as always. These newbees did pretty good too- they kept me entertained for sure :)
