El Portillo, Chile (cont) Video

I thought that I would have more time to write on the blog, but I spent most of my time skiing, partying at El Portillo with all the cool people we met, or being a "touron" in Santiago. Chris and I owe Camile a huge thanks for not only showing us around Santiago but also for taking us to her home in the beautiful Isla de Maipo, a wonderful farmland and massive vineyard region.

My partner, Chris Chaput, is more than I could ask for. It was great to work with such a colleague and we will be working together again in the future towards more high-level courses and adventures, no doubt. We've been putting our heads together to put on something like this in Colorado.

Kerry had a great time and hopefully will be going back again next year. I think the trip made a good impression on him, so I hope the word will travel. If it weren't for Kerry pushing so hard to go on this trip I'm not sure that this magic would have come to fruition. We were ready to pull the plug with all the complications of the volcano, switching flights at the last second, and having to make this happen at the last second, but you can see from the video that it more than paid off. I'll NEVER regret this pilot run with this program. It was awesome.

A photo is worth a 1000 words, but this video says it all. I think the BMG program is awesome and Chris and I have more dreams of bringing the same quality programs to the States in the future. In the meantime, I'll bet you wished you were there:
