Chile Video Update

Chile is known for its world renowned whitewater. Being about 2,700 miles long, and on average 109 miles wide with the Andes Mountains forming the eastern border, the concentration of runnable rivers and waterfalls is unrivaled. This year Chile saw a huge influx of kayakers looking to enjoy what the country has to offer. Volcanoes are almost always looming over the rivers and towns as a constant reminder that the rapids are waiting. The Pilot Collective crew was fortunate enough to be in Chile for five weeks this winter. We hit such classic runs as the Rio Claro, in Northern Chile, to the numerous famous runs in the Pucon area, as well as some of the late season creeks further south.
