SGT ARGENTINA

Pt 3

New adventures await us each day we go out on the mountain.  Snowfall last Saturday made the skiing really good and led us to hike out beyond the area boundaries to explore.  Time has gone by so fast, as it should when you are having fun...
Sometimes we hike up and ski down, sometimes we ski down and hike out.   We've covered so much of the terrain here, with our SGT guides leading us to all the goods.  There's so much area to cover and we have had opportunities to see it all.  It's all dependent on what we want to do and how long we want to hike.

After long days on the hill, coffee and empanadas from Tage hit the spot.  Empanadas are fried meat filled pastries that come in either jamon y queso (ham and cheese) or carne (meat).  Both are highly delicious and extremely enjoyable, while somehow providing relief to sore muscles.  Top it off with a dip in the heated pool and the ski day is complete.
