A quote from the man closest to the man who makes it happen. Another sick episode from Jordan Manley Photography. Backing up the Baffin Island Episodes with another banger that really makes me want to go back to Argentina, this time for the snow instead of the cheap beer, good looking women, and never ending amazing times.
“Jordan’s done it again in his final episode of the Skier’s Journey from 2011. This episode really captures the blend of road tripping, culture and rad skiing that we all yearn for as skiers. Again I missed the trip which makes me sadder than ever watching this video since he hit a tonne of spots like Reugion Frey, Penitentes and Volcan Lanin. If you’re a skier these should be on your hit list for sure” Jamie Bond doglotion.com
I have hiked through these regions in the summer and stared up at these chutes and surrounding terrain and let me tell you, it is a skiers paradise speckled with the best traveling experiences out there. You should go!
Argentina: A Skier’s Journey EP3 [Season 2] is a road trip through some of Argentina’s lesser known ski locations, covering nearly 4000km down the windswept spine of the seemingly endless Andes mountain range. Chad Sayers, joined in part by local skier Maximilliano Artoni, explores desert and pampas, Cohiue and Auracaria, pumice and ash, cardboard and blower, sunshine and wind, granite spire and some bubbling agua termale.
