This first handbook about ski mountaineering in the Andean Cordillera, in both Chile and Argentina, is also a travelogue. I describe and narrate over 80 tours, routesand paths... One of the particularities of such an adventure is the discovery of snow-capped volcanoes,their intense activity, their fumaroles, their abysses, their lava explosions and... their thermal hotsprings. The first section presents this as yet littleknown region of the Andes. Then follow the technical characteristics of each itinerary, covered by the author on skis. 9 maps and 400 photos facilitate one's understanding of the Cordillera morphology, its crops, the appearance of the vegetation, the meteorology, snow conditions, summits, and itinerary routes. Travellers, walkers, skiers or mountaineers in search of the unusual will find in this book the necessary ideas for touring through this wild and unspoilt part of the world.
