    A parting shot: inspiration for those bent on battling vertical mossy roots, leeches, slippery boulders and so on, for that one run, on V Corcovado, guardian of the Gulf of Corcovado.

    Awesome peak that, as seen from Chaiten town, a summer shot a few years after the V Chaiten eruption.

    Bumping this thread for a couple questions. I broke my Tibial plateau on my first ski day of the year and am focusing on rehab. Doc says that things look good and puts me on the shorter end with full recovery at 6 months. Since Ikon won't give me a refund/credit/discount/anything, I was thinking I might look at using it at Valle Nevado this summer if I get the OK from my doctor. When is the best combo of coverage and snow potential. Interwebs say mid July to mid August. How are the crowds then?

    Mid-July to mid -August is best. Looks like 2025 school holidays are early again this year, June 21 - July 5 (Public health reasons). So arrive when you want in July, but be aware it can go a month without new snow even starting mid-July.

    Now that VN and La Parva have joined, you could also stay in La Parva. Loads of Airbnb type places around in both.
