5 Adaptive Winter Sports Programs in the U.S.

"Based in Denver and offering downhill lessons at Winter Park Resort, this long-running adaptive sports organization has operated for more than 50 years and began as an adaptive ski program coaching young amputees in 1970. Over the decades it has expanded beyond skiing and snowboarding to provide activities like rock climbing and sailing while maintaining high-quality adaptive snow instruction. The program also supports a competitive race track for athletes who want to train and compete." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
