Sarah Johnson

Portillo is my hands down favorite ski area due to the incredibly friendly people, the insane amount of powder, and the advanced terrain. Even though the are fewer runs, they never get old. The powder is endless and lasted for about a week until it snowed again. Plus, the cliffs to jump off of always keep it exciting. The skinning/ boot packing is challenging but way worth it. The views are unlike anything that I've ever seen before and the fresh lines will have you woo-hooing the whole way down. The iconic hotel is home to the best people and skiers on earth. It's impossible to get bored in Portillo because after skiing all day there is always something to do whether it's hot tubbing, working out, going to the bar, playing soccer in the gym, rewinding with some incredible yoga, or just hanging out at tea time. The hotel has one of the most organized schedules I have ever seen and there is constantly something going on. Portillo is a one-of-a-kind place that has kept me coming back for years.
