Breckenridge Outdoor Experiences Center

The center helps skiers or those wishing to ski who have disabilities of some nature. My wife has a visual impairment, and while she is not completely blind, the fantastic folks at BOEC have helped blind skiers down the runs. I saw quadriplegics and autistic and other people with challenges grinning from ear to ear with the help of the compassionate staff at the BOEC helping them down.

At $120 a day, the rate covers individualized attention, instruction as needed, a lift ticket, and rental, so not a bad deal. Bear in mind the "minders" aren't paid, so a tip at the end, if appropriate (how could it not be?), helps them out a lot (my wife's "minder" was 1 of 12 people they put into one house and who are expected to get by on $50 a month stipends).

Each and every one of the staff was a delight to work with, dealing with all ages and types of disabilities. Patient and caring, if you have a need for their help, you can expect a lot of compassion and help.
