Great free camping right by the Ski Village--cool nights, good wifi and pho

There are several large parking lots near the Ski Village where RVs can park overnight--several nights within reason. No hookups of any kind, but good wifi and phone connectivity. No reservations necessary and no registration procedure, but good security and supervision. Access to trails to Wheeler Peak, Williams Lake, and Bull 'o the Woods.

Half hour drive over winding steep road from the town of Taos, but well paved and not exposed.
