I've known about Valle Nevado ski resort in Chile for a long time and always wondered what it was like. Well, I finally went and here is a sample of what you can expect if you go there.

An advanced skier or snowboarder may be able to cover the entire mountain in one day, particularly if they are only skiing or snowboarding on groomed slopes. There are a few slopes at the top of the trail map that are only accessible by T-bar or other surface lift, so if you only like chairlifts, you will have to forego those slopes.

Ultimately, it is a great ski resort -- the largest in Chile. If you spend the extra money to buy a ticket for La Parva and El Colorado, which are connected to Valle Nevado, you will be skiing or snowboarding the largest combined ski resort in South America.
