    I am at the farm in San Rafael, the above weather report was second hand news.
    Anyways, super trippy weather here. A few hours, a super big wind storm swept thru, now still as can be and 80 degrees!
    The Argentine weather is like everything else here, subject to change!

    Just a few minutes later and the temp has dropped 12 degrees and the winds are picking up. Definetly looks socked in up in the mighty Andes!

    Estoy un gringo en una extreno terrena. No es facil!

    The Mrs. and I don't really fit in around the farmlands too much. In fact, I think we really only fit in when Marte is running! but that is another story for another day.

    Thanks for your reports enlosandes It's getting me psyched for Las Lenas It's so good to hear your reports, especially after I JUST got an email from my friend who is in Bariloche... and he said it's so bad there (rain, no snow at the base) that he's leaving (he was going to spend the summer there) to go to Farrellones. I was planning on hitting up Las Lenas and Bariloche in August, but I think a change of plans may be in order there!

    Mate, you can tell them it is untouched all day long, but when it is like a hotdog in a hallway they're going to want their money back

    Looks like the storms are stacking up. I wouldn't expect any real ski reports soon, but maybe storm totals from time to time.
