Deep powder awaits heli skiers, snowboarders in Chile and Argentina with POWDER SOUTH
Thanks to the Internet, news has traveled around the world about the extraordinary winter storm that blanketed the central Andes in Chile and Argentina with more than 2 meters of snow this past weekend (we received 220 centimeters at our measuring station at 3,000 meters elevation, and there may be more in the vicinity). Yes, winter started slowly this year, but it is now in full swing with a suddenly deep snowpack and excellent conditions awaiting those who venture to South America for a ski/snowboard adventure of a lifetime.
The snowpack appears stable and ready to be tracked.

POWDER SOUTH is anticipating a busy season with plenty of soft turns thanks to an El Niño that some meteorologists are calling the strongest in many years, and as company co-founder & director Joaquin Oyarzun points out, more snow is in the immediate forecast.
