Well, conditions are not great in Las Leñas right now. It has gotten really warm, and things are really melted out. We may get a little bit of snow, but it is looking like the Santa Rosa will not happen this year. Without fresh snow, it is going to be hard for Las Leñas to stay open past the next couple weeks.
However, until things warmed up, the past couple weeks have given us some really good skiing. Here is a video of skiing an area called Torrecillas last week:
Torrecillas is one of those zones that makes Las Leñas a special place. It is a basically a wall of spines and couloirs with giant spires rising above them. There are not many zones in the world that are as aesthetically cool as Torrecillas. The lines are not really long or really steep, but they sure are pretty. As an added bonus, it the snow is pretty much always powder out there.
you make me mad that you dont air those beautiful looking lips. and a wuss out on the str8 line? c’mon…..
See guys, it’s not just me…. Airs Please….pussies
last time we bitched about the lack of airs in a video, they said the lines were too steep, too rocky, too scary….. Now Lee, you say this zone is tame, why are you guys skiing like old men? Next year, can you take Miles with you?
Gee, I guess everyone is just not as good as you guys. Hope you live long enough to ski like old men…
just expect a little more from Unoficial. I think a bunch of people are better than me…. I want to see them ski and ride, I usually see them on Unoficial. Im not seeing them in Las Lenas.
Unofficial, rather
I’m enjoying the new alias, Miles. I’m not sure if it is really believable though.
Hey Mr detective, my name is Max Knight, unlike a lot of the nutless people who coment on Unofficial, Im not afraid to use my real name
Cmon guys..powder isn’t the only kind of snow that is fun. The only time I was in lenas, it was prime time corn skiing with nobody around and..dare I say it? I’m glad it wasn’t powder. Sun, warmth, minimal slide danger, smooth as a baby’s butt=awesome.
