Im a local at this resort too. Its the resort that Chileans use, not many tourists. What i like the most, its the off pistes terrain, you have some sick but dangerous lines that finishes on the street and you have to hitchhike back to the resort. Its an awesome experience. Awesome snow quality lattley too. And if you go in weekdays its absolutely empty. Thats great too

Skiing after a big storm is unreal. Free ride heaven!! The road to it is a little dangerous on good days. On storm days, stay off of it. As soon as it opens, be there EARLY. its a drive from the city. Base of the resort is at 2500mts Bring your own food if you are that person Be prepared to overpay for food on the hill. Get a guide to play out of bounds
