The Santa Fe New Mexican today published a feature about the opportunities for winter recreation that are being offered on the Valles Caldera National Preserve this season:
A brilliant bed of deep, creamy snow awaits visitors to the Valles Caldera National Preserve this winter where cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and sightseeing is at its best right now.

According to the story, this weekend is the last opportunity of the season to take advantage of a sleigh ride on the VCNP, while the Preserve is scheduled to be open to cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and sightseeing under the full moon Feb. 27.
The New Mexican also states that weekend and special-event visitation so far this winter has passed all of last year’s total for the season: last year, the preserve saw 1,814 visitors during the winter season and earned $12,474. This year, with several weeks still yet to go, the preserve has already seen 2,979 visitors and earned $31,699.
