Enriching Lives Through Adaptive Recreation

At Arizona Snowbowl, we believe there are no limits to learning to ski or snowboard. High Country Adaptive Sports is a 501(c)(3) non-profit located at Arizona Snowbowl in the winter time, offering specialized adaptive skiing/snowboarding lessons and equipment to help build your confidence, improve your fitness level, make friends in the community, and find a new passion for winter sports.

HCAS believes that sliding on snow should be accessible to everyone and strives to exemplify this daily by providing safe and effective ski and ride lessons. HCAS’s professionally certified and passionate ski instructors are dedicated to getting you on snow. Lessons are available for those with visual/hearing impairments, cognitive/developmental disabilities, amputations, spinal cord injuries, Cerebral palsy and other physical disabilities, and more. Please do not hesitate to reach out to see how they can get you sliding on snow!

Lessons are held weekly, Wednesdays-Sundays, from January 1st – End of March. Lessons are offered in Full Day, AM, and PM half-day packages. To schedule your on-snow experience, please fill out the New Student/Athlete Registration Form. 

If you are interested in spending time on the mountain while making a difference in the lives of others, HCAS also has a long-standing and committed volunteer program. Come spend time on snow, meet new people, and positively impact the community around you. To sign up to volunteer, please fill out the Volunteer Form.
