The Ruidoso area is in the cool mountain pines of Southern New Mexico, in the heart of Billy the Kid country. It rests in more than a million acres of wilderness and national forest ideal for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking. In the winter, Ski Apache, the southern-most ski resort in the United States, offers warm-weather powder skiing and many family-friendly activities. #NewMexicoTRUE | New Mexico True
