TERRAIN UPDATE:
Ski Santa Fe is thrilled to be opening early for the first time since 2001! Early snowfall and great snowmaking conditions have allowed us to open 70 of our 90 trails across the mountain, 28 of those trails groomed. Please join us at 8:30 am for the dedication of the new Santa Fe Express High-Speed Quad. In addition to the Santa Fe Express, we will be spinning the Millennium and Tesuque Peak triple lifts, servicing the upper mountain. The Easy Street and Pine Flats lifts will be open to serve the beginners’ area.

Guests can expect early season conditions, with thin cover and unmarked obstacles possible. The mountain’s best coverage will be on Lobo, Alpine, Midland, Santa Fe Trail and Easy Street, which have seen a lot of extra love from our snowmaking crew. The terrain parks will remain closed until conditions allow us to set up and maintain freestyle features.

Open runs will include Crossover, Davey Lane, Easy Street, Lower Broadway, Midland, Pine Flats, Riblet Road, Santa Fe Trail, Sierra Cat, Spruce Catwalk, Thruway, Azmataz, Broadway, JC, Lower Gayway, Lower Midland, Lower Parachute, Lower Thunderbird, Open Slope, Spruce Bowl, Thunderbird, Upper Midland, Bozo, Bozo’s Glade, Dr. Rich, Free Fall, Lower Fall Line, Muerte, Pinball Alley, Slalom Slope, T Bird Glade, Upper Broadway, Upper Thunderbird, Alpine, Gayway, Highland, Little Alpine, Lobo, Lower Burro, Pope Snows, Saddle, Sunrise, Sunset, Sunset Trail, Avalanche Bowl, Burro Alley, Cody’s Glade, Columbine, Cornice, Coyote, Desperado, Double Eagle V, Fall Line, Highland Glade, Lower Wizard, Luge, Molly Hogan, North Burn, Pipeline, Richard’s Run, Ripcord, Ristra, Roadrunner, South Burn, Sunrise Glade, Tequila Sunrise Glade, Wizard, Big Rocks Glade and First Tracks Glade.
