Felipe, On our touring day you made the extra effort to make sure I could rent a touring setup in a size that would work for me, going back and forth between a few shops.Not knowing the area as well, this was a huge help and I probably wouldn't have made it that far without it.When we got on the hill, you were prepared and knowledgeable right out of the gate.Your concern for our safety was evident and I never felt that we were in danger while hiking and touring on terrain.Your knowledge of the area and flexibility in your plans made a day of tough weather conditions into a fun adventure to a beautiful hot spring a couple valleys over.We never felt rushed and we never felt like we were running out of time to get everything in.You really nailed our touring day to attainably fit our goals.I would definitely go with you into the back country again as my guide.

What an amazing day! Heli skiing on endless first tracks all the while watching a smoking volcano, Manu and his team bring years of experience to the backcountry to our day. The helicopter was well maintained and the pilot was able to set us down on high ridgelines. They kept the operation going quickly with very little wait. If you want an unforgettable experience, come ski Nevados de Chillan. If you want a once in a lifetime, add in Heliskiing with BackChillan.

Thank you so much for inviting me along on the heli adventure. It was one of the highlights of my trip. I'm looking forward to our next meeting. If you land something in the mountains then please let me know so I can bring some friends.
Regards Ski Family!

You took us on awesome adventures, made us feel very calm and relaxed and no pressure. You both have a very accommodating vibe which makes the day very enjoyable. I loved that you where able to split the group up on our first day so that some people could go home and some could do another run. It worked really well. Also the photos were an added bonus, everyone loves them. I will be returning next winter hopefully with more groups and I hope we can work together again.
It has been now a year that we travelled to beautiful Chile. One of the things that made our time so special in Chile was our Splitboard Tour with lovely, funny and kind Francisco of BackChillan.
The tour was very professional and well chosen for beginners. But at the same time not at all boring, just amazing and beautiful. Francisco had answers to all of our many questions and taught us so well how to behave in case of an avalanche.
We still love to remember this amazing tour always facing the ash spitting volcano. It didn't felt like being on tour with just some random Guide, it nearly felt like spending time with a good friend. Thank you Back Chillan, Thank you Francisco for this special part of our trip.

Excelentes días en el valle Las Trancas, a los pies del Nevado de Chillán, junto a nuestros amigos de BackChillan conocimos Valle Hermoso, Valle Aguas Calientes y las montañas nevadas de la región del Bio Bio. Lindo Lugar.
Thank you for the tour. We had a wonderful time and it was a very special experience to go to Aguas Calientes. We will certainly recommend your touring service to other backcountry skiers.

Whether guiding amongst the snowy peaks of Chillán Viejo and Nuevo, spying fresh lines in Valle Hermoso and Aguas Calientes, or sharing the best mountain biking lines in Valle Shangri-La, this core group is the go-to for local knowledge—and even offers one of South America's only AIARE-certified courses.
