While in the Northern Hemisphere everyone is dousing their livers with heavy amounts of alcohol, getting kicked out of MDP premieres and chasing girlies that like snowboard boys, we are still hopping around on our snowboards trying to avoid coming home and getting a real job.The season finally feels like it’s winding down, temperatures are rising and the last snow fall seems to have been ages ago.

The reason we were having such a difficult time tracking down agr Field Correspondent “Dr. Gillis” is because he was undercover!
We found Doc in the most unlikely of locales. But that’s what it takes to bring you fair and accurate news that agr is known for.

With my massive signing bonus from agr, I had the funds to make a trip over to Valle Nevado, Chile and do some snow surfing. Conditions were excellent; sunny with no clouds, 2 meters of snow (that´s over 6´ for those of you aquainted with the archaic US system), and more than 800 hectares of Chilean shRADness. All on opening day. Sick mode.

Thanks to our remarkable increase in readers and the surplus of revenue from advertising, agr has been able to send a field correspondent to South America.
In continuing our commitment to journalistic excellence, we have sent none other than the finest of the Calgary Cavalry, Captain Gill.

Capt.Gill’s first assignment was to document the highly anticipated opening of Valle Nevado Resort in Chile. But for some reason he went to Bolivia, and then got stuck there.
So until we hear further from the Cap’, enjoy the teaser for “No …
