Vista Verde Ranch
I booked this stay with a little trepidation, wondering if there would be enough for me to do.  But between falling in love with the backcountry skiing and all the other choices, I felt like I had to force myself to slow down and enjoy some time just reading by the fire and relaxing.

Snowshoeing


The joy of snowshoeing is getting out and soaking up the backcountry without having to worry about technique or form. Why? Because there is literally no techniques to snowshoeing besides being able to walk like a duck!

With some simple pointers about going up and down hills, off you go. If you would like, a guide can take you on a tour up to Hinman Lake, the Cliffs or somewhere even further away from the ranch.

Or you can go and romp around by yourself. Snowshoes allow you to access some places that you just can?t get to on skis. You can make it into a great workout in the deep snow, or just go for a stroll on one of our snowshoe specific trails that are already groomed for you.
