Excerpt from Snowshoe Magazine on Jeff's winter business, guided snowshoe tours:

On a recent trip to Red River, we went on a guided snowshoe tour led by a local guide, Jeff Fagan. For the very reasonable cost of $75, Jeff will take two people snowshoeing in one of the canyons around Red River. Additional participants are $25 each. The tours last for a half-day and can be tailored to the desires and fitness levels of the participants. We chose a tour that goes up Pioneer Canyon past some abandoned mines. It ends at an old miner's cabin, built in the early 1900's. The scenery is spectacular. Jeff also has a wealth of knowledge about the history of the area. Just ask.
Snowshoe tours can be booked directly through Jeff by calling (575) 770-9451 or through Bighorn Sports at (575) 754-2721. If you need to rent snowshoes, Bighorn will rent them to you for $10 per day. From late spring through the fall, Jeff conducts guided fly fishing tours, which can also be booked through Bighorn Sports. Log onto their Web site www.bighornsports.us for details about fishing locales and pricing. We plan to go fishing with Jeff when the weather and our schedule permit. When not fishing or snowshoeing, Jeff often showcases his musical talent by performing with his band, the Highway 38 Houndogs, in locations around town.
