Ski Portillo with Katie White - a world apart
Manage episode 377279107 series 3512368
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 is family owned, has world class skiing for all levels of skier and crea tes a “live-in community” similar to a small ski town.
