Adaptive Sports Center at Crested Butte Mountain Resort
Spectator SportsColorado, United States11-50 Employees
The Adaptive Sports Center at Crested Butte Mountain Resort coordinates adaptive winter and summer programs, supported by an instructor team certified through professional associations such as the Professional Ski Instructors of America and the American Association of Snowboard Instructors. Many instructors have long tenure, and several behind-the-scenes roles are filled by Certified Recreational Therapists with extensive therapeutic recreation backgrounds, which informs program design. To improve access for people with disabilities, the center launched the Adventure Equity initiative, lowering private-lesson prices to 125 dollars so that skiers with disabilities can participate at costs comparable to a lift ticket. Based in Crested Butte, Colorado, the organization operates within the spectator sports sector, offering winter and summer adaptive sports experiences for a regional clientele. In 2026, NunatakEnergy partnered with Adaptive Sports Center along with Habitat for Humanity and other local organizations to support community missions in the valley. The center maintains a small to mid-sized team focused on delivering professional, inclusive adaptive sports programming.
