A snowstorm rolled through the Chilean Andes last week leaving 4″ to 12″ of snow laying around in Valle Nevado.  This was the first snowfall of the season and it was a good one.  Early May is very early for snow to start accumulating in Chile.  This snow will most likely completely melt away before the next snowfall, but it’s still nice to see.

Las Lenas, Argentina appears to have gotten even more out of this storm with about a foot at the bast and likely 2 or 3 feet up top.
