I flew out of Vancouver on July 8th, and arrived in Santiago, Chile.

I was officially a ski bum!

In Chile the majority of the mountains have no trees… flat light + no trees= no fun.

At least the poor weather brought snow, and of course lots of rain to santiago area.

Floods and mud slides shut the road down,  and killed 4 people.

Portillo turned out to be the most amazing mountain I have ever seen.

Massive cliffs, steep chutes and incredible snow.

After two days of shredding lines in Portillo we all jumped on a red eye bus to Temuco.

Next stop was Termas De Chillan, where there was supposed to be a big air comp.

I was able to learn a bunch of new tricks, and had a really great couple of days.

That brings me to September 26th for the slope style at Valle Nevado.

What an incredible way to wrap up my 3 month ski trip in Chile!
