Riding the Don Otto lift at Termas de Chillan, you have some time to kill. The fixed-grip double takes about 20 minutes to carry you 2,296 vertical feet up the mountain. The scenery's great, but I amused myself by taking pictures of the Skiing Magazine's Fluff ski, a custom Volkl Bridge designed by Skiing's Associate Art Director Mark Lesh.
