Paralympians, adaptive athletes, corporate sponsors and kids competed in races at the Wells Fargo Ski Cup from Feb. 20-22.

The event, held at the base of Winter Park Resort, even got an appearance from a moose who trotted through the area.

The ski cup is the National Sports Center for the Disabled’s largest fundraiser of the year. Adaptive athletes who compete win money to help fund their ski careers, including trips to Paralympic races.

A highlight of the Wells Fargo Ski Cup is the corporate challenge race, where a National Sports Center athlete races with corporate sponsors. The event takes place each February at Winter Park Resort.
