Bariloche, Argentina Report: Spring Finally Arrives in Patagonia | There’s So Much Snow Here…

Report from September 25, 2023 We got out to Cerro Catedral ski resort in Bariloche, Argentina, at about noon today after waiting for things to soften up. Spring finally arrived in Patagonia today for the first time. Sunshine, park rats, a wiggle, cruisy groomers, and some young corn. We still need a couple of melt-freeze cycles to get a solid […]

SnowBrains 2021/22 Season Highlight Video | 233K-Vertical-Feet Ascended, 181 Ski Days, 3 Continents, 10 Locations

2021/22 was a rough season for me. I discovered I had now cartilage nor meniscus left in the lateral compartment of my left knee. I was basically on one leg all season. I got some PRP injections, took a month off, skied less, trained harder, and learned to work with pain. I was still able to ski 181 days in […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Riding a Mini-Avalanche & a Mini-Car on the Last “Powder” Day of the Season

Report from September 23, 2023 Yesterday, we went for a walk with low expectations. It has rained and snowed for 2 days then gone clear. When we get lucky here, a cold clear night can suck the moisture of the snow and make the skiing great. But the snow was so heavy and wet and foggy saturated here on Friday… […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Immaculately Dry Late September Powder In A Ravishing Chute

Report from September 18, 2023 Monday morning was clear and cold. This time of year here is usually hot and melty… Not this year. This year all of September has been cold and stormy.

Patagonia Backcountry Report: This Place Is Getting Too Filled In With Snow | Mini-Spines & High Tower Chutes Are Buried

Report from September 12, 2023 Tuesday was the last sunny day of the week most likely. A large, wet, warm, Tahiti Express storm is clobbering us right now. Lotza rain, wind, and hopefully in the end – snow. Tuesday held dense, wind-pressed, and sun-kissed snow. There were quite a few people in the zone this day so I laid back […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Dropping The “Ridgewalker” Pillows & Hucking “The Grifter” Cliff in Deep Powder Snow

Report from September 11, 2023 On Monday, we sauntered out into the backcountry for the afternoon. It was Stormin’ Norman all morning then the clouds started to break up as per forecast. The first thing we did when we got up high was dig a pit in a familiar zone. The results were a bit touchy. We know this zone […]

Bariloche, Argentina Report: Are Spread Eagles in Tight Trees A Good Idea?

Report from September 11, 2023 On Sunday, the snow in Bariloche, Argentina was hot, crusty, and bad. Everywhere. In my ultra-dramatic human standard of being, I wrote the rest of the season off as hot, funky, and weird. A warm, rainy storm was rolling in that day and the forecast was hot, wet garbage. That night, I kept my eye […]
