South America Exploration

The DOF for WITS is looking for some exploratory souls who want to be directed to possible new remote backcountry ski tours and hot springs in the Andes between Portillo and Las Lenas for a few weeks at the end of August. Current snow depths are the best in a decade! Let me know if you have interest and availability.

What do the acronyms you listed stand for? Is this a fun trip or are they looking to find out something?

Report back, Silas! That sounds like a cool itinerary

The season has been quite dry down there this year, however there have been some very good days that folks I know have been able to salvage. Right now there are good pockets of powder at Las Lenas, but also some strong winds and rough conditions mostly. TGR has a Chile 2016 thread and CASA Tours has many photos on Facebook from the past weeks. Powderquest might have photos too, I haven't checked.
