ADVENTURE EQUITY

Everyone should have access to ski and snowboard for the same price

Advocating for equal access to the mountains is core to our mission. One way we do this is by offering our adventures at a reduced cost. We recognize that the cost to enjoy the great outdoors is commonly a barrier to participation for a people with disabilities.

$125/Full Day Private Lesson

New for the rest of this winter season, we are introducing our Adventure Equity Initiative. For $125, the price of a lift ticket at Crested Butte Mountain Resort, we are offering a full day private adaptive ski or snowboard lesson with expert instruction, specialized equipment rental, and lift ticket*.

Now, everyone can get out and enjoy the sun and the slopes this winter for the same price as the general public! Additionally, our program is inclusive to family & friends and we still offer an amazing scholarship program that can provide extra assistance. No matter what, we want to get anyone interested out to experience our programs.
