Porters is the go to field for riders who want challenging terrain and excellent customer service. Mountain hosts are on the slopes most days and are more than happy to share their best runs and help first-time riders and skiers. The cafe has delicious home made hearty meals, the best baristas and don’t forget to try the steak sandwiches!! Yum!
