Got out to Alaskita in the Bariloche, Argentina backcountry yesterday (Friday) with my good buddy Rylan.

Sunny skies, light to moderate wind, spectacular views, good snow up high, punchy snow down low.

Super fun to be out there with a buddy from back home at Squaw.  

The skiing has been powdery, cold, and good here since Wednesday.
