Las Leñas 7/30: Backcountry Classics

 

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.
