Portillo 2010 : NASTC Portillo Team Rocks the Roca!


Nick, Dave, Jon, Dave, Marlin and Chris on the upper slopes of Roca. Great view of Aconcagua and the hotel below. The week was as much about enjoying a true ski vacation as it was about pushing limits, however all would agree that we had the perfect blend of both in this years NASTC at Portillo All Condition / All Terrain Camp. With only 400 guest skiing at the resort the private club atmosphere prevailed and we explored great terrain and and untracked snow, with out the push of crowds. The snow was not as deep as last year but great skiing was found with just a little more exploring. We are making plans for next years clinic already while the excitement of this years clinic still lingers. I do miss the Hotel Portillo bakery smell first thing in the morning and the sight of spinning chair lifts as my first sight of the day as I peak out my bedroom window. I challenge anyone to find a more perfect ski training venue in August.
