While waiting for our bus to Argentina, watching the rain melt the snow off the trees in Termas, I received an email from the guys at South America Snow Sessions down in Bariloche. It is dumping. Read on for the full report.

After two sleepless nights and a six hour bus ride we were skiing in Chile. Wind, some snow, and a lot of Pisco later, and suddenly four days has vanished. With approximately 50 centimeters on the way, we will stay to ski another day and then head for Argentina.

"A Life Ascending": The Story of Mountain Man Ruedi Beglinger

"A Life Ascending": The Story of Mountain Man Ruedi Beglinger

Posted by: Molly K Baker / added: 08.22.2010 / Comments (0)

Cliches run rampant in the business of skiers communicating their connection with the mountains. Partly because love of skiing is simple. Secondly it makes a lot of us feel the same emotions. But some skiers have the uncanny ability to describe the mountains and skiing in the exact way the rest of us have tried with the words not available. "A Life Ascending" utilizes the voice of Swiss mountain guide, Ruedi Beglinger, as he weaves the story of his life into universal captivation with the mountain lifestyle.

It's not that they ever disagreed, it just hadn't been completed. Now, Canadian and American avalanche centers have created a danger scale, with hopes of eliminating ambiguity, which will be implemented this winter.

Exchanging Shorts for Ski Boots: Jacqui Edgerly on South America

Exchanging Shorts for Ski Boots: Jacqui Edgerly on South America

One of the first season’s I met Jacqui Edgerly she won the North Face Young Gun award. Since then Edgerly has made a graceful presence on the World Freeskiing tour circuit, winning last year’s South American stop at La Parva and ultimately claiming second place overall. Filming and continuing to pursue competitions, Jacqui talks a little about her plans for a month and a half in South America this summer; so far El Colorado and Las Lenas are on the itinerary...

One hour after graduating from U.C Berkeley in California, I packed all of my stuff and moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. I spent five years skiing Little Cottonwood Canyon, competing on the U.S Freeskiing tour, and shooting with photographer Re Wikstrom. Last season I found myself visiting Mt. Baker, skiing pillow lines, and quitting my job in Salt Lake. Shots from those days can be found in Backcountry magazine, Powder, SBC Skier, Freeskier, Patagonia catalogs, and, of course, The Ski Journal. My goal is to travel, go skiing, and write about it.
