ski resort, famous for its majestic setting and deep snow. Once you
go, you’ll never want to leave. This is NASTC ’s 14th season

Lake Inca or traverse into huge bowls amidst 15,000’ Andean peaks.
With 12 lifts, 23 runs, and all the snow of a maritime range, we have
skied it all in August (equivalent of February at home). Portillo is
home to big mountain extremists, racers, and every-day carvers, but
amidst the familial and social atmosphere of the Grand Living Room and
the late night disco, everyone is equal. Levels 6-9
Price:$4390 (includes
ground transfers, Portillo Octagon lodging and meals, 8-day lift ticket,
6 days instruction, hotel amenities, and final night in 4-star Santiago

in Portillo WITH their families. What a great way to spend one of the
last weeks before school starts! Adventure skiing and race training
in the Andes! Kids will be places in ability-appropriate small groups
with their own coach. They will ski from 9-12, break for lunch with
parents, ski 1-3.30, and then enjoy all the hotel has to offer (a bit
like being on a cruise ship complete with long lists of fun kids' activities
posted daily!) A bit of sight seeing in Santiago is a fitting end to
this cultural experience. Join us this year for a skiing experience
you will never forget. Portillo is everyone's paradise!
