3 Reasons We Love Pajarito

by Kelsie Stelting February 6, 2017

Pajarito Mountain, located in the Jemez Mountains, it’s the ideal location for people looking to get away from the crowds and get great views of New Mexico. With 300 acres of cleared, skiable terrain, dedicated snowmaking, and a great selection of discounts and promotions, it is not only a great place to ski or snowboard, but also an affordable destination for snowsports enthusiasts. In case you needed any extra reasons, here are three things we love about Pajarito Mountain.

No Lift Lines

Pajarito Mountain is famous for its lack of lift lines. Standing in lines or navigating around other boarders or skiers can get old really quickly. Avoid this at Pajarito and spend more time doing what you went there to do!

Snowmaking

A lack of snow can really put a damper on a skiing or snowboarding trip. The snowmaking operation at Pajarito has taken the guessing out of the trip, and allowed people to enjoy the slopes all season long!

Panoramic Views

With a peak elevation of 10,440 feet, Pajarito Mountain has beautiful views! From the summit you can see the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the southern Rock Mountains, the Valles Caldera National Preserve, and even the Sandia Mountains.

Comment below and let us know what you love about skiing or snowboarding at Pajarito Mountain!
