Conditions Report
Report from September 3, 2023
Yesterday, we hauled our carcasses into the backcountry for one last sunny day.
The previous day (Saturday) held the best snow we’d ever skied in South America…
On this day we went for the Sun Chutes which are north-facing but we were confident that due to the cold conditions, they’d still hold soft snow.
We were wrong…
Greggy took one of the normal lines and it was good enough.
I decided to try a new line that I’d never skied before that has a little mandatory air.
The snow was bad…
Especially where the air was.
I hacked and slarved and squeaked my way through there and was stoked to have tried something new.
Now we wait for light as the forecast is showing snow all week.
Dinner at Mikey’s house was $$$.
Thanks, Patagonia!
