Skiing in Summer

Skiing in Summer Chase Winter in the Southern Hemisphere

The summer months might seem like an interminable waiting game to seasoned skiers and snowboarders. Resorts are closed, the snow has melted, and a beach simply doesn't sate your want for powder.

What if, however, you could accompany winter to the Southern Hemisphere, where the adventure is just getting started and the mountains are covered with fresh snow?

Why Ski in South America During Summer?

From July through October, South America's Andes Mountains provide world-class skiing and snowboarding. For experienced and skilled riders, this is the ultimate off-season pleasure because of the unspoiled snow, breathtaking scenery, and less people.

The Southern Hemisphere offers experiences that northern winter fans can only imagine, whether they are looking for isolated backcountry powder, wide-open alpine bowls, or steep couloirs.
