    God Bless the NYTimes

    One of the most least encouraging and most gaperific articles I've seen on South American skiing, includes this gem of a graph:
    Hanging off the southern lip of Nahuel Huapi Lake is one of Argentina's two main ski centers: Bariloche, comprised of the quasi-Alpine town of Bariloche and its mountain, Cerro Catedral. (The other, Las Leñas, was described to us repeatedly as not only expensive but boring.)

    Sounds fairly accurate for non-hardcore types. I think the people who take vacation advice from the NYTimes will probably prefer Llao Llao anyways...

    Hey, easy on the Times. They've been catching enough shit lately from the White House.

    They ran a pretty good article this winter about Big Sky. waddya want from a bunch of gay traitors from Sodom, anyway? Like the New York Post has a bunch of cool articles about off season skiing? lighten up.

    Here, this article is pretty good: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/09/fa...8d3&ei=5087%0A
