Patagonia Backcountry Report: Perfect F’ing Powder in Scary Chute

Report from September 20, 2022 Tuesday was the penultimate day of our southern ski season. After learning the previous day that it was south faces or bust (other aspects were already sun cooked), we went for Scary Chute – a due south-facing chute with a fun rollover, rocks, and a wide-open runout. Scary Chute is often precisely that, scary. Firm, […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Spicy From Top to Bottom | A Mini Avalanche in a Technical Chute

Report from September 19, 2022 I awoke uneasy yesterday. I awoke spun. I searched the mountain, the skies, the clouds, and my mind for reasons not to ski Alaska Chute. For reasons not to even go look at it. Bad snow, avalanches, too cloudy, not enough snow, I’m not up for it, it’s not in. When I got to the […]

Bariloche, Argentina Backcountry Report: 1-Inch “Powder Day” on the Mini-Spines

Report from August 25, 2022 Yesterday morning we set out for the mini-spines we love in Patagonia. It had snowed 1-0″ the day before. The x-factor was high, or it would have been had Greggy not already gone out there the day before and scouted it for us. He reported fun, smooth, scratchy-at-times skiing that was better than a dull […]

Bariloche, Argentina Backcountry Report: A Gorgeous Day in Chutes & Towers

Report from August 22, 2022 On Monday, Greggy and I went for a walk. We weren’t sure what we’d find out there but we had misplaced faith that a due north line we like would be just soft enough to ski. We just had a seven-day storm here last week that dropped about 6 feet of snow. Then, the sun […]
