Muy buenas pistas, lástima que tienen pocos medios de elevación y cuando corre un poco de viento no funcionan las telesillas, quedan muy poca pista. Deberían solucionar ese tema porque es la patagonia y siempre corre viento. Los medios son viejos, los modernos funcionan con viento. Un paraíso mal aprovechado y explotado.
