Since I was old enough to know South America's season were opposite the Northern Hemispheres I schemed making the pilgrimage. Last August (2009) my brother accompanied me and we had a blast, here's a few more clips
We kind of got the runaround with weather/conditions but had a pretty good time to boot anyway, unfortunately we didn't have such a great camera to capture it all but my Nikon coolpix s1 worked ok
driving up to Las Lenas, finally looking like some good snow and terrain
the famed "Marte" not running
Two days before leaving the storm of the year began dropping the beginnings of 8' of snow, this resulted in somewhat of an inter lodge with no lifts running and all outside activities hampered till the storm lifted. Someone was living in this bus, all the snow on it was new.
