Taos Ski Valley, Inc.
Taos Ski Valley, Inc. was founded in 1954 by Ernie and Rhoda Blake. Historically a family owned and operated ski resort, TSV was recently acquired by a private company with deep TSV enthusiast roots. With a sincere commitment to celebrate TSV’s singular offering, the new entity is investing substantially in the mountain and base village revitalization; the resort’s systems; infrastructure; and real estate offering to significantly improve the guest experience, increase annual visits and reclaim TSV’s position as one of the world’s top mountain destinations. It is located in the Sangre de Cristo range of the southern Rocky Mountains in Northern New Mexico. Taos combines the feel of the European Alps with the charm and beauty of the Southwest. Its world-renowned terrain, amazing food, friendly people, beautiful weather, and breathtaking scenery has kept guests coming back for over 50 years. Taos offers a little something for everyone with 1,300 acres of skiable terrain for all ability levels; small crowds and nonexistent lift lines make it easy to explore the entire mountain at any pace. Taos Pueblo and the historic town of Taos sit just 20 miles away. Taos Pueblo is the only living Native American community designated both as World Heritage Site by UNESCO and a National Historic Landmark. The multi-story adobe buildings have been continuously inhabited for over a 1,000 years. The town of Taos' rugged beauty, majestic mountains, wild Rio Grande river and unique blend of cultures - Spanish, Native American and Anglo - have historically drawn artists and photographers, evidenced by the plentiful galleries, museums and festivals.
