4 Days in the Las Leñas, Argentina Backcountry | Valle Hermosa, August 19th – 22nd

When the snow was good this season, the boys were getting after it in Las Leñas, Argentina.  Once the lines close to the ski resort were tracked out, this crew headed to Valle Hermosa in the Las Leñas backcountry and the big hut out there to get some alone time.

Valle Hermosa has world class freeride terrain and you can’t hit it much better than these guys did.  The narrow chutes with mandatory airs take some real guts to hit fluidly.  These boys hit a few of them.

The terrain in Las Leñas is special.  If you’re willing to work a little extra and head out to Valle Hermosa (beautiful valley) you’re really gonna see some unreal terrain.

This video was filmed from August 19-22nd in the Valle Hermosa area near Las Leñas ski resort.

The forecast for Las Leñas right now isn’t pretty.  Lots of sun, no clouds, temperatures in the 50Fs.
