 Taos Ski Valley This really is only the last 2 or 3 weeks of the season so skiers can enjoy a few more months of skiing freedom. With Taos dropping the snowboarding ban, there are only 3 U.S. resorts that still keep boarders from their slopes: Alta (Utah), Deer Valley (Utah) and Mad River Glen (Vermont). Alta and Deer Valley are highly unlikely to open up to the boarders anytime in the foreseeable future. Lift ticket prices will not change. The price will remain $63/day for adults with discounts available for teens, children, seniors and multi-day passes. TSV said lots of people had bought their passes and made their plans before they made the announcement, so they felt like they needed to honor the contract with them.  Snowboarding - A New Paradigm for Taos Ski Valley Taos Ski Valley's transition has already begun and will continue over several phases for about 7 years. It will cost approximately $35,000,000. Taos Ski Valley will always remain a haven for people who are passionate about the mountains, and not about what they wear on the hill or what famous people they shared the slopes with. What makes Taos Ski Valley special are the people that love this place and that will be true loyalists whether they are skier or snowboarders.
