This is Matthias Weichselbaumer’s wrap up video from the 2012 season in Las Leñas, Argentina. It is filled with stoked, satisfied skiers and snowboarders. If watching this doesn’t mak you happy, then you are probably a bad person.
Nice one, Matthias!
That place looks super fun and it seems like no one is around… Anyone know, besides the plane ticket, around what it costs to spend a season down there? Without moving around a bunch, just season pass and a place to stay? food? etc?
Prices change based on how long you’ve been coming down here and how budget you are willing to go, but here’s a rough estimate:
Season Pass 7500 pesos (may go up next year, it does tend to increase every year)
Lodging 150-200 pesos per night for budget long term stay
Food 300 pesos a week (this one is really up to you… could get by on 100 a week, could easily spend 1000 a week)
Right now the official rate is 4.6 pesos to the dollar, and you can probably get pesos on the street at 6.2 to the dollar. Who knows where it will be next season.
Feel free to contact me if you need help with logistics at some point.
…. Im a bad person. Looks like a weak gaper edit. You guys are a lot crazier walking around in your boots than you are on the snow. I know Im gunna get a lot of people giving me shit for saying this, but you guys did a shitty job of maintaining summer stoke. I really hope you guys paid for your own tickets. If Unofficial paid, they should be pretty pissed off. You guys are out of your league. If you come out to Squaw, I’ll give you a private lesson for a discounted price! I’ll show you how to get your board/skis off the ground
I have been skiing Squaw my entire life, not only would no one desire a guided tour from your ass based on what a piece of shit you are, but I guarantee you would shit your pants in Las Lenas. You need to learn how to shut your mouth…..
