by Adaptive Sports Association
Located at the foot of the San Juan Mountains in historic Durango, Colorado, the Adaptive Sports Association (ASA) has provided outdoor recreation for people with disabilities for over four decades. The organisation operates in close partnership with Purgatory at Durango Mountain Resort and draws more than 250 community volunteers each season to support its programming.
ASA's flagship winter programme delivers one-on-one sit-ski, mono-ski, bi-ski, and adaptive snowboard lessons from opening day to closing day at Purgatory Resort. The gear library holds equipment in every size including jackets and snow pants, and over 50 PSIA/AASI-certified instructors ensure high-quality instruction for every disability type. Summer activities include whitewater rafting, cycling, canoeing, kayaking, and rock climbing.
ASA serves individuals with physical, cognitive, developmental, sensory, and psychiatric disabilities regardless of age or financial means. Financial assistance is available, and the organisation is firmly committed to inclusion regardless of disability type or severity.
