Overall, the weather has been great for getting out into the big Las Leñas backcountry these past few days. The winds have been high at times, but there has been plenty of soft snow to be found, and the skies have been blue.
This video features two Las Leñas classics: Torrecillas and Cerro Negro. Torrecillas provides guaranteed powder on playful, spiny terrain; while Cerro Negro is steep, rocky, and terrifying.
Clouds just rolled in this afternoon, so we may have a few gray days ahead of us. At the moment Snow Forecast is not calling for any real weather, but keep your fingers crossed, because we could really use a refresh.
Thanks to Matthias Weichselbaumer for the POV footage in this video.
Also, apologies for the delay since the last conditions report. The internet has been really, really, ridiculously slow. Hopefully it will improve when holidays from Buenos Aires end.
I gotta say….. that blew hard! Slow turns, no airs at all. Point that shit son! Someone had a bad case of vaginitis. Way to send it guys
Come on down and show us how its done.
would if I could
at 1:40 , there’s a dude over the left cliff … don’t think he really where he was going!
Yeah, he didnt. From the available angles on the hike up, it looked like there would be an exit on that side. He was able to find one with some sketchy rock scrambling.
Sauba, Hias!
