A very low incidence of natural disasters and extreme weather reduces risk and delays caused by weather events. Experience four seasons and enjoy a number of outdoor activities in the sunny climate and varied landscapes. Snow and water skiing, ice fishing, fly fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and camping under the moonlight in the national forest are all part of daily life in New Mexico.
