Chile/Argentina
I spent a week or so in Portillo, Chile a few years ago and had a
blast. It's a beautiful spot up high near the border of Chile and Argentina, and the cost was very reasonable. Terrain was great - lots of steeps and good vertical. We didn't get any real powder but they are known for getting massive dumps. I believe I went in late July or early August. http://www.skiportillo.com I hear that Las Lenas, Argentina and Valle Nevado, Chile are also very fun. Some people compare Valle Nevado to Whistler/Blackcomb. Have fun.

Great snow when I was there and not too busy apart from at the weekend (we went late August if I remember rightly). Only a short drive from Santiago too. There are a few other small resorts nearby that are pretty decent too, although the facilities are not as good. -- o=| Mark |=o |
