(NYT41) CRESTED BUTTE, Colo. -- March 1, 2003 -- COLO-SKIING-PROGRAM -- The Adaptive Sports Center at Crested Butte, Colo., was founded in 1987 to provide and promote outdoor recreation to people with developmental and physical disabilities. Started as a skiing program, instruction and special equipment for snowboarding, snowshoeing, ice dancing, dogsledding and snowmobiling are now provided. In 1998, the program expanded into the summer months, offering downhill mountain biking, hand cycling, canoeing, multiday river trips, white-water rafting, hiking, camping and fishing. Roughly 10 percent of the center's students come from abroad -- as far away as Germany, Australia and Argentina. On a recent trip to the resort, a group from England shared the slopes with local skiers. Peter Smith, from London, England, has spina bifida, strapped into a monoski charging down the slopes Feb. 20, 2003, is a systems analyst for Unisys and has been coming to ski at Crested Butte since 1998. Like many of the visitors to the Adaptive Sports Center, he is a member of the Uphill Ski Club in England. (Fred R.
