South American ski resorts are ready to fire up the chairlifts and get their season underway. To help make things happen Ullr is throwing in a few feet of snow to blanket the Andes with a thick layer of white.

This storm should help most of the Southern resorts to get runs open after  delayed openings due to a lack of snow.
