SASS Argentina skiing

Catedral Ski Resort in Bariloche, Argentina OPENS for the Season Today

Catedral ski resort in Bariloche, Argentina got a solid snowstorm yesterday that was enough to open them up for the season today. They were hoping to be open on June 20th, but had to wait a bit longer for the snow to fill in enough to make things right. Another reason they felt confident about opening today was the forecast. The forecast is showing a foot of new snow in the next 2 days. Catedral is our favorite place to ski in South America and we’ll be reporting at least weekly from this area all summer.
