From August 4th until August 25th skiers and riders harvested powder everyday in Bariloche, Argentina. There were 4 days when the mountain was closed in that time, but everyday it was open, it was good.
In this post, you’ll find the best photos from that glorious 3 week powder cycle. Everything you’ll need information-wise is in the captions: links to that day’s article as well as some info on what is in the photo and what day it was taken.
The first 5 days of the 3 week cycle, the upper mountain at Catedral ski resort got 130 inches. Each storm after that would drop around 1-3 feet. There was a storm every 3 days or so…
