Ogden Valley Adaptive Sports
Ogden Valley Adaptive Sports (formerly Snowbasin Adaptive Sports) is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization whose mission is to provide adaptive snow sports programs at Snowbasin, Powder Mountain and Nordic Valley resorts.
We are passionate about enriching the lives of people with disabilities through winter sports and recreation. Thanks to the generous support of individual donors, grants from private corporations, foundations and the community, we offer scholarships that enable participants to engage in our programs, regardless of ability to pay.
Individuals of all ages and abilities can participate in our ski and snowboard programs. Our lessons include specially designed equipment such as bi-skis, mono-skis, sliders, ski bikes, and outriggers as well as traditional ski and snowboard equipment. Many times, you will be tethered to an instructor or stand-up skier who will assist with steering, balance, and getting you down the mountain safely.
We encourage the inclusion of family and friends in your lesson and the program. It is truly life-changing for everyone.
