Ruidoso

A mountain resort town, Ruidoso lies in the rugged Sierra Blanca mountain range of southcentral New Mexico, where it merges with the Sacramento Mountains to the south.

Ruidoso is a resort community with beautiful alpine scenery. You'll also find the Ruidoso Downs racetrack, and slopes of Ski Apache, the Mescalero Apache Indian-owned ski resort on the 12,000-foot mountain Sierra Blanca.

The tribe also operates the Inn of the Mountain Gods resort in the area, which includes a casino, hotel, and golf course.
