Very stunning scenery and perfect skiing is what you get at Kendall Mountain. There are other spots here than Crater Lake, for example Little Molas Lake, and Purgatory Lodge

from Crater Lake.
So many fun things in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains, just phenomenal. Camping is available at Lime Creek Campground, and going for a hike on the Whitehead Trail is always a good adventure. All through the
