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. We […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Alaska? Nope… Spines, Chutes, & Fingers in Epic Patagonian Snow

Report from September 2, 2023 Yesterday, we got out there early and found rained-on snow and some high-density, delicious cream cheese in the trees on a blustery, cloudy day. Today it went full blue. We expected the typical, wind-pressed, dense, “carton” (cardboard) as they call it here. As we climbed up we started noticing sparkling snow (preserved stellar dendrite – […]

Report from September 1, 2023 I was at Mikey’s birthday party last night when a buddy showed me a video of it snowing hard at the base of Cerro Catedral ski resort in Bariloche, Argentina.

Bariloche, Argentina Report: Dumping Empanadas, Buses Tokyo Drifting, Spooky Tree Skiing, & Blasting Alpine Wind

Report from August 30, 2023 Woke up late today and looked out the window. Dumping empanadas out there… Usually, I know I need to get up and get moving early because I hear the rain on the roof all night. Normally, it rains in town and snows on the mountain. Not last night.

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Getting Beat Down By “The Crack”

Report from August 27, 2023 On Sunday, we got beat down by “The Crack” here in Patagonia… This is a line we’d never skied before mostly because it’s in a dangerous zone – as we explain in the 3rd slide. The first 15 turns were splendiferous! Turns 16-61 we’re absolutely abysmal… Punchy, unpredictable, icy, and just downright scary snow. We […]

Patagonia Backcountry Report: The Patagonian Spine-Fingers

Report from August 26, 2023 On Saturday, we showed up early with a line that only had a small chance in hell of being any good. My favorite line here. It’s an Alaska-esque spine line that is shaped long a long, twisted finger. In the right conditions, it can be a scary, fun dream line. In the wrong conditions it’s […]
