Big snow is headed to South America this week.  Up to 66″ of snow is forecast at Valle Nevado, Chile and they’re already open.

In fact, 3 ski resorts are already open – El Colorado, La Parva, and Valle Nevado in Chile.  El Colorado opened on May 19th, which is unheard off…

Many more ski resorts plan on opening this week.  This big snow is certainly going to help more ski resorts get open this month.
