South America; Argentina and Chile Ski Resorts.
The Ski Season has returned to South America. All of the major Ski resorts in Argentina and Chile have benefited from recent snow storms, with over a meter of fresh snow in just the first few days of the season. As a result, at all the major ski resorts there is fantastic skiing to be had!
NOTE: If you are planning to ski in the Southern Hemishere in 2020, check the resort is open for skiing before you make plans or travel. I have heard that due to COVID-19, Las Lenas is not going to open at all in 2020.
