Taos Gives It Up!!! See Ya in Denver

Taos will allow snowboards later this year.


Burton's "Sabotage Stupidity" is working. Check Burton.com for the video and the $5,000 he is throwing down for the best poaching video. http://www.burton.com/poachers/Default.aspx Here is more about it http://www.boston.com/news/local/vermon ... challenge/



By the way, I'm out of here. Moving to Denver in the next couple of weeks. Look me up if anybody is heading out to Colorado to SNOWBOARD!

TAOS SKI VALLEY, N.M. (AP) - Snowboarders will be able to take to the slopes at Taos Ski Valley beginning March 19th.
A member of the family that began the northern New Mexico ski resort, Adriana Blake, says the decision was made because it simply was time for snowboarding.She says there were enough Taos loyalists who wanted snowboarding.
Blake acknowledges that some people feel that snowboarding will ruin Taos.
But she says Taos is special because of the people that work and play there, and that won’t change.
In her words: “We’re just sharing the mountain with more people.”
Ski New Mexico says other resorts in the state allow snowboarding.
