For its latest expedition, the Faction Collective sent Sam Anthamatten, Sophia Rouches, and Duncan Adams to soar down Chile’s snow-covered volcanoes.

Who wouldn’t want to carve some turns in Chile? 

Seriously, it’s hard not to feel jealous of this trio as they climb and ski volcanoes in one of the world’s most beautiful mountain ranges.

The Faction Collective dropped its latest ski touring vid this week, showing off not only the gorgeous scenery, but also exploring the significance of the volcano to Chilean culture. That includes conversations with the Mapuche people, locals who have started to grow their own passion for skiing.
