    Some Bariloche stoke ...

    ¡Hola amigos!

    My gf and I are chilling in Mendoza - we´re headed to Las Lenas in a couple of days. Here´s a few shots from Alta Catedral in Bariloche last week:


    Some nice lines:



    Here´s me in La Laguna, which is about a 15-20 minute skin from the lifts:

    Looking back towards the lake:

    Obligatory picture of the two of us in La Laguna:


    We loved Bariloche - here´s hoping Las Lenas is even better!

    a couple of folks had some purty burly skiing out there, stuck fairly cleanly by the looks too.

    Thumbs up

    damn... that looks horrible

    Looks like you got some good snow at Catedral. Hope Lenas treats you even better. And with a storm moving in this weekend, could Santa Rosa be far behind???

    have a great time in LL, perhaps we'll see some of the maggot group on Friday 9/2 at the Wine Bar (as soon as we get our transportation hooked up).

    Looks like LL will be going off at the beginning of September.

    Unfortunately, the Bros are back home in Canada. Since we´re covering a lot of ground this trip, we decided to limit ourselves to one pair of skis each. I decided to bring my Inspireds/Freerides combo instead of my Bros/Solly´s so I could do some touring ... but I was kicking myself for not having the Bros at Catedral.

    Great photos, you guys definitely made out well with the snow on your three weeks in SA. After talking to you guys and other people while down in Las Lenas it sounds like Bariloche is place I'd like to get to in the future.

    when everything in the world is at its darkest, it takes a big man to kick back and party.

    I'd guess about 800Km?

    at least an overnight coach or flight to Mendoza.

    A good 12 hours in a car, we just did it from San Rafael. And a flight from Mendoza would require going thru Santiago or BA.
