Ski Texas

These ski areas were once located in the Great state of Texas, alas no more. Colorado and New Mexico claim them. Well actually... no one really did much skiing back then and Mountain men mostly used snow shoes to get around. Skiing didn't take off in the Rocky Mountains until the gold rush era in the late 1870's.

Texans can still wonder and amaze to think if we just would have discovered the white gold a little sooner we could of kept them! We can also strive to keep them our sentimental favorites as part of the old Republic of Texas and the new Ski Texas.
