About Powder Puff
Powder Puff is a former ski area located near Red River in northern New Mexico. The area is no longer in operation, and little remains of its infrastructure today. Visitors interested in the history of skiing in the region may find the abandoned site worth exploring, though there are no services, maintained slopes, or ski facilities to visit. Access to the location is possible year-round by vehicle, though winter conditions in the area can be challenging. The site itself offers primarily historical interest rather than active recreation.
