A bit early to get too excited but a storm system is bringing some snowfall to the resorts outside of Santiago now through this weekend. El Colorado, Valle Nevado and La Parva all getting a little coverage.
Nice to know that its cold enough already for some recordable snowfall.
Last season was very good
hopefully this is an indicator that we may have another deep season.

come on out
peace

I'm so jealous, wish it was still winter in the Northern Hemisphere; this was Blackcomb today, final day of regular opening before summer riding starts on the Glacier tomorrow:

Denizen could your pictures be anymore depressing? =P

@KGSnow - That looks pretty sweet, some of the rocks look a bit unfriendly though!

I think denizens pics are the best as it shows how people are still willing to ride the crappiest conditions imaginable for the love of the sport.
