Without the early efforts put in place by these adaptive skiing innovators, many Paralympic athletes would not have had the foundations set for them to achieve success. Photos show adaptive ski instruction, date unknown.
Adaptive skiing allows people with disabilities to ski using specialized equipment, which grew from a recreational pursuit into a competitive sport, with seventeen skiers participating in the first Championships in Austria in 1948.
Colorado led the way in adaptive snow sports since 10th Mountain Division veteran Jim Winthers taught amputee veteran friends how to ski. With the support of other veterans, Winthers founded Disabled Sports USA in 1967.
The child care landscape is uneven in the valley and capacity differs. Low pay for teachers and a high cost of living in the Roaring Fork and Colorado River valleys are the main factors for the lack of child care spots. This story is from: @AspenJournalism aspentimes.com/news/aspen-jou…
