What we’re about
Seattle Eastside Ski/Ride Meetup Group
Meet other local skiers & snowboarders to get out and enjoy the mountains. We offer both local and out-of-area ski & snowboard trips, carpools, weekend ski houses, regular social events, and advice to save you $ on lift tickets. We welcome skiers and boarders of all skill levels. Come join us on the slopes!
Unless you own the Epic or Ikon pass - or an alternative pass issued by individual ski areas, most resorts will likely be operating with rules where these pass holders have first rights on the mtns. if they start reaching capacity (usually holidays/wknds). So with La Nina in the forecast for this winter, we know there are a lot of you that will be getting up to your favorite resort. So get out and enjoy everything the Mountains have to offer. And see ya on the slopes! Stay safe & healthy everyone!!

SKI SEASON
Chile skiing is from the middle of June through late September, best season in August. Valle Nevado is located in a high mountain desert at almost 10,000 feet (base elevation) and experiences big storms from the Pacific Ocean, delivering an abundance of powder each season!THE MOUNTAIN
Valle Nevado has an excellent variety of terrain and a lot of it! The resort is above timberline and since it is the highest resort in the Andes, it receives very light powder. There is terrain for all levels of skiers, with long groomed runs for cruising, steep powder faces, and perfect open bowl skiing/boarding after big storms! The heli-ski and backcountry terrain here are some of the best anywhere in South America and offer big vertical relief. Both La Parva and El Colorado Resorts can be accessed from Valle Nevado by purchasing an upgraded ski extension pass, once you are in Valle Nevado. Combining all three of these resorts makes this the biggest resort in South America.DURATION/DATES

Join Saveur the Journey for a Strong Intermediate/Advanced level Southern Hemisphere Skiing and Boarding trip to the Mendoza Province of Argentina in August 2025. Escape the hot summer stateside and travel across the equator to chase an endless winter with this small-group South American ski trip to the high-altitude resort of Las Leñas in the Andes. With a base at 7,350 ft (2240m) and the lifts topping out at 11,250ft (3430m), Las Leñas provides almost 4ooo ft of vertical and is a massive resort, with more total skiable terrain than Whistler, Canada. Las Leñas has a good mix of difficulty levels, from great intermediate runs with superb views, all the way to extreme steeps, bowls, and couloirs. Due to its high altitude, the quality of the powder up high is considered some of the best in South America. The resort is geographically remote (about four-and-half hours drive from Mendoza city) so it takes some work to get there, but the payoff is a stunning location with potentially limited competition for the more advanced powder lines.
A local Argentinian guide and ski instructor will get you to the front of the lift lines and show you the best powder stashes and where to experience superb Argentinian wines, pampas beef, chocolate, and culture.
