Winter has well and truly arrived in the Andes, with ski resorts in Argentina reporting fresh snow in excess of two feet deep.
Cerro Catedral in Bariloche, Argentina, has seen over two feet from this latest storm. And that’s at the base. The upper mountain has been closed this week due to avalanche risk and high winds so there’s likely even more snow up high.
An inbounds avalanche at Las Leรฑas over the weekend seriously injured two skiers.
Catedral currently has a 47″ base, and the upcoming forecast calls for another 8″ of snow over the next week or so.ย Just in time for SnowBrains’ annual trip to South America where Cerro Catedral is our home for August and September. Look out for lots of snowy content in the near future.
