A high-end ski village in the Central Andes, Las Leñas is isolated from larger towns and sits at the gateway of a high altitude valley with towering peaks and minimal vegetation as far as the eye can see. The Marte chairlift unlocks access to the area’s legendary terrain. From the top of the iconic, old school two-person chair, innumerable bowls, couloirs and peppered faces beg to be shredded. Take note though, after massive storms–that have been known to drop three-plus meters (yes, meters!)–parts of the lift can become buried in snow, or devastating winds can literally flip the chair’s cables over themselves.
