Buckle up folks: here it comes. Things to remember:

Loss of power
We are serviced by Xcell Energy. We will call to report outage in the event of power loss. Generators are permitted during a disaster event.

Loss of Water
Honestly we will freeze up. With sub zero temps it is certain. Please unhook hoses and fill those fresh water tanks.

Help!
If you need help as far as getting iced or snowed in and your camper door won’t open. Call the office number and we will send someone to help you. For a medical emergency, etc - call 911

New Mexico Road Conditions call 511

As always we are here for you during a major storm event. The most important thing you can do to insure you don’t have any issues and our staff doesn’t have to get out in this mess is to please unhook your water.

Forecasts are updating and it is not in our favor… fill those tanks and unhook your hoses today. If you have a generator get it ready.

It appears a huge winter storm is headed our way. Things to remember while RVing during a major winter event.

Fill your fresh water tank and unhook your water hose. Even a heated hose during an event like this will freeze.

Cover your faucet with some type of bucket, cooler, box.., something. Do not attempt to turn the faucet handle in below freezing temps - the faucet will break.

Make sure your propane is full. Do not use extension cords with space heaters and make sure to never leave a space heater unattended with pets or children.

Candles in the event of power loss as well as a back up generator is a great way to plan ahead. We do not allow the use of generators except in the event of emergency situations such as a weather related event.

Maintenance is available 24 hrs a day however depending on the issue it may have to wait for warmer temperatures due to the safety of our staff.

It is possible we will experience outages during the storms expected today and tomorrow. Please plan accordingly - we will allow generators to be used during outage times.

Xcel Energy is conducting a Public Safety Power Shutoff due to extreme wildfire risk and high winds, and some power lines in your area may be de-energized. Start times are expected beginning at 11am, later in some areas based on wind speeds.

Crews will begin to restore service once it is safe to inspect and repair equipment. Some customers may remain without power until Wednesday, March 19. If weather related outages occur, that may result in wider spread long duration outages.
