Cumbres Still Chuggin and Fire BAN in Place

Some of you may have heard about a fire on a trestle on the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic RR.  Happened about a week ago.  Cause unknown.  Although it will take about a month to repair, the train continues to operate from Antonito to Cumbres pass and back.  Each half of the line's runs offers widely varied vistas so you'll still get to enjoy this steam powered narrow guage rolling history museum.  http://www.cumbrestoltec.com/  888-286-2737  Tell them Indian Hills Inn, Taos Plaza referred you!

For those planning to camp around Taos, the forest service has fire restrictions in place.  Here's their source document - http://www.fs.fed.us/r3/carson/news/2010/06_23_10_cnf_stage1_fire_restrictions.shtm.  Please use good judgement when enjoying the awesome forests around Taos!

If you're one who's enjoyed our firepit / BBQ, it is closed due to the Town deeming open fires hazardous.  http://www.taosnews.com/articles/2010/06/29/news/doc4c212a244b4ec608472544.txt.  You can still enjoy the beautiful sunsets with a glass of your favorite beverage purchased across the street at Smith's around our central park courtyard.

Another 4th of July activity is the Arroyo Seco Parade and Outdoor Celebration.  Just a few minutes North of downtown Taos, you'll come across Arroyo Seco.  Food, music, floats, more.

Taos Sacred Labyrinths Series is offering exhibits, workshops, and walks throughout Taos this year.  http://www.livinglabyrinthsforpeace.org/.

Harwood is offering Family Play Date on the 4th from 1 until 4 PM.  Activities will be facilitated by an artist instructor with different design themes each Sunday.  http://www.harwoodmuseum.org/

Taos Pueblo Pow Wow is a week off.  Those are just a few of the MANY things to see and do in and around Taos.  Join us in the mountains, bring your hiking shoes, pack up the bike, let's enjoy these wonderful outdoors months in the high mountains of North Central New Mexico.
