Patagonia Backcountry Report: This Place Is Getting Too Filled In With Snow | Mini-Spines & High Tower Chutes Are Buried

Report from September 12, 2023 Tuesday was the last sunny day of the week most likely. A large, wet, warm, Tahiti Express storm is clobbering us right now.

Bariloche, Argentina Report: Are Spread Eagles in Tight Trees A Good Idea?

Report from September 11, 2023 On Sunday, the snow in Bariloche, Argentina was hot, crusty, and bad. Everywhere. In my ultra-dramatic human standard of being, I wrote the rest of the season off as hot, funky, and weird. A warm, rainy storm was rolling in that day and the forecast was hot, wet garbage.

Ohau Snowfields, New Zealand Report: Sun-Kissed Cloud Surfing

Report from September 8th & 9th, 2023 Brilliant conditions have been the backdrop to recent stunner days at beautiful Ohau Snowfields in New Zealand’s Southern Alps.

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Mini-Mandatory Air in an Exciting New Chute

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.
