Ready to hit the slopes? 🤙🏾

Looking to try something new? Dress for a winter adventure and come out to Hoedown Hill to try adaptive snow tubing with us! Individuals with physical disabilities interested in experiencing a new kind of winter adventure can sign up for an evening of tubing fun right in our backyard.

Hoedown Hill, our partner in adaptive skiing, snowboarding, and now - snow tubing - skips the lift lines and mountain traffic in delivering inclusive winter programming.

🗓️ Thursday, March 5th
🕕 5PM to 7PM MST
🗺️ Hoedown Hill in Windsor, CO

This program is free for veterans and individuals living with physical disabilities, but space is limited. Registered participants can include one guest to tube with - additional guests will need to purchase a separate ticket with Hoedown Hill to participate.

‼️ This is snow joke.

We are deeply sorry to hear about our Canadian peer’s recent theft of a trailer full of adaptive equipment. Such a loss is a blow to anyone who supports accessible and inclusive outdoor sports and recreation. We wish them a speedy recovery. 💙

We are aware there was a miscommunication in our overlapping community, and welcome anyone who accidentally made a show of support to the incorrect organization to reach out to us for resolution immediately.

How can you create inclusive experiences for your community, without first asking your community members about the struggles they face? You can't! 😃

VisitAble, an accessibility training company, will conduct at least one virtual focus group in March-April 2026 via Google Meet to further inform how public-facing services and experiences can be as accessible as possible for people with disabilities.

Each 1.5-hour session will include up to 8 participants and offer ASL interpretation and other accommodations upon request. Participants and alternates will be selected from this application and contacted in late February, and those who participate will receive a $100 honorarium after the session.

The focus group is intended for people with disabilities; companions or caregivers may join as an accommodation, but the honorarium is provided only to the individual with a disability. Sessions may be recorded for internal analysis only, and individual responses will not be publicly attributed.

Apply by 11:59pm ET on Sunday, February 22nd to be considered!

Happy February! 🫶🏻

Our Adaptive Skiing and Snowboarding program kicks off ⛷️ THIS THURSDAY ⛷️ at Hoedown Hill in Windsor, CO - who's registered to attend?! Don't forget to layer up, we can't wait to see you on the Hill.

If you're not a fan of the cold (or flying downhill on a mono-ski) come cheer for our very own Development Manager, Jessica Rutherford, in Golden, CO as she presents Adaptive Adventures to the Denver Giving Group for a chance to receive a $10,000 donation! 🤯

We need your support, so if you're not heading to Hoedown Hill, come on out to the Connects Workspace (Red Rocks location) at 7:00PM wearing your best Adaptive Adventures gear, and support Jessica and the team as we share why inclusive outdoor recreation isn't just good for some of us, it's good for all of us. 🦾

Let’s get outside together! 🏔️

We’re so excited to invite our Fort Collins-area community to join us for one of our newest programs in Colorado - an inclusive group hike designed for all abilities, and a perfect way to try your first Adaptive Adventures experience.

📍 Cathy Fromme Prairie, Fort Collins
🗓 Saturday, the 31st
⏰ 1–2 PM

Research shows that even five minutes of activity outside can boost mood, self-esteem, and overall mental health. A simple walk in nature can help reduce stress, depression, and anxiety, and sunshine has proven mood-boosting benefits, too.

Fresh air really does make a difference. 🤯

This hike is all about moving your way, connecting with others, and enjoying the outdoors together. No prior experience needed, with limited adaptive equipment available upon request. Service animals and guide dogs are welcome and must remain on leash at all times in compliance with county regulations.

Come see what inclusive adventure looks like. 🌲
Register today at adaptiveadventures.org.

If you joined in a 2025 program with Adaptive Adventures (participants, caregivers, and families), give us a 5 minute check-in, and help us build better, more accessible adventures for everyone, both now and down the trail!

✨ In another grateful moment…

Today we want to recognize our incredible friends and partners at Ride Designs, Aspen Seating, Enabling Technologies, and Creating Ability. These organizations play a vital role in supporting our athletes through equipment, specialized adaptations, and the customized seating solutions that make movement comfortable, safe, and empowering.

Their expertise and generosity ensure that participants across our cycling, climbing, paddlesports, and multisport programs have access to the right equipment—adapted to their bodies, their goals, and their freedom to move. From fine-tuned seating systems to sport-specific adaptations, their support helps us meet athletes exactly where they are and opens doors for them to go even further.

We are deeply grateful for partners who understand that the right fit, the right configuration, and the right equipment can transform a participant’s experience. Their collaboration helps us say “yes” more often, welcome more athletes, and create programs where everyone can participate fully and confidently.

Thank you, Ride Designs, Aspen Seating, Enabling Technologies, and Creating Ability, for the care, craftsmanship, and heart you bring to every athlete you touch. 💙✨
