Chile closes mountain routes to Farellones over avalanche, landslide risk

Chilean transport authorities preventively closed routes G-21 and G-251 near Lo Barnechea due to forecast precipitation and avalanche/landslide risk from an incoming frontal system. The closure is precautionary and based on weather forecasts, not an active event. It disrupts access to the Farellones ski area and mountain communities, with reopening dependent on conditions.
