For those who haven’t seen the radar of South America in the last 2 weeks you may have missed the 4 feet of snow that came through the Southern Hemisphere. We have a rule here at the AGR office; when it snows, we don’t work.
The DC Snow Team frequents Chile and happened to be here for the last 2 weeks. AGR hung low as Devun and the fellas did their thing. It wasn’t tell we hit the bar when things got a little out of hand. You can be sure to see some of their trip in the upcoming Mt. Lab 3.5 and catalog. According to rumors, the Burton crew will not be coming to Chile as they have in years past…. Maybe the recent team set backs also came with budget cutbacks.
After the most recent storm the AGR: Field Coorespondance crew in South America was deported from Chile. We have no news as to why. Maybe they were slashin’ too many innocent bystanders, maybe stealing french fries, who knows. Or maybe they set off this 600 meter avalanche in the area known as Santa Teresa… But this was the last that was seen of them………. riding in the back of the patty wagon.

Send us signals soon fellas!

Good field correspondence. Good reed.
Yeah… I don’t think there’d be any outrunning that avy.
FYI… found this with a little Googlin’:
