Todo Nieve/One column of latitude
Section 3 of 4
Mendoza to Tierra del Fuego, in one column of latitude
From 32 degrees south to nearly 55, and what changes on the way down.
Read as one column, the nine resorts stop being a list and become a gradient: elevation falls, the treeline climbs into the ski area and then drops out of it, the season shifts by weeks, and the last mountain sits 1,300 kilometres past the second-to-last. Three pieces that take the range as a single object.
