This year marks the 75th Anniversary of SKI Magazine. To celebrate, each day until the 75th Anniversary issue hits newsstands, we'll be honoring the people, events, places, and things that have made skiing what it is today.

Portillo sits in a wonderland of knife-edged peaks and turquoise lakes, where Chile’s Andes Mountains climb 19,000 feet into the sky. Yet despite the stark vistas and the distance from civilization, this mountain outpost breathes elegance and polish, a living tribute to what skiing used to be. And, to the guests who return year after year, what it still is.

Steamboat is still the genuine Western town it's always been, but long-awaited base improvements and a flagship luxury residential property are softening its rough edges.

Indulge your simple pleasures at this quiet North Shore sleeper.
