Is Patrick booked there for streak turns in July?![]()
Patrick is on the DL after an elbow dislocation at Mammoth May 29. He remained at Mammoth for a couple of follow up doctor appointments and to ski on June 4 before coming down here June 8 and flying home June 10. He might need surgery. I'm guessing at least one of the next 3 months will be in New Jersey.Is Patrick booked there for streak turns in July?![]()
Typical pattern, if anything a little low. The central Andes have by far the highest volatility of any ski region in the world.Four feet+ in the Chilean mountain.
I haven’t booked SA since 2012. Somewhat disappointed with weather on that last trip.Is Patrick booked there for streak turns in July?![]()
I might have spoken too soon. Looks like there is a significant storm coming.
Rain in Santiago. Four feet+ in the Chilean mountain.
The pictures were just startling - like those coming from the Alps after New Years.
Not that early for the central Andes. On average Santiago has seen 47% of total rainfall by June 30 and 68% by July 31. It's very different from California in average incidence.It’s still very early for the Andes.
We are now at mid-July and Portillo's season snowfall is 62 inches. That's much less than half of the 1970-2007 average considering that we're approaching 60% of the snow season.
That might shutdown the ski areas for a couple of days. Friend from the Yukon is there now, but leaving in one week. French monoskier Rodo also just arrived.Better late than never: https://opensnow.com/dailysnow/southamerica/post/30934
Models forecast storm totals of 122 inches at Portillo and 99 at Las Lenas
