Ski Portillo, Chile

Updated: Apr 9



In this episode we go south…way south to the Andes Mountains in Chile. My guest today lives and works in the mountains 12 months a year. In the winter Katie White is in charge of all instructor training at the Yellowstone Club in Wyoming and is a PSIA-AASI Examiner, in the summer, she is the Ski School Director for Ski Portillo.


Portillo is unlike any other ski resort in the world. It is approximately 2 hrs by car from Chile’s capital, Santaigo. A small resort by US standards, this resort isfamily owned, has world class skiing for all levels of skier and crea tes a “live-in community” similar to a small ski town. 



My Favs


  • Best Restaurant – Main Dining Room - Hotel Portillo

  • Best Hotel - Hotel Portillo - the only hotel in town- comfortable and done with excellence

  • Best Apres - Tio Bobs - best apres south of Taos

  • Best Run- Cruce Lake Run

  • Don’t miss – Sunrise or sunset on the lake.
