Taos New Mexico Ski Trip

During the drought in the Far West from 1986-1988, many Californians skied Taos because we heard there was an abundance of snow there. However, so many Californians showed up that the lift lines got a lot longer than the resort operators were used to. They came around and apologized to people and passed out hot chocolate for having to wait longer than 10 minutes to get on the lift. A 10 minute lift line in California is not a big deal.
