We are also casting a wider web in hopes of attracting more blind and low vision adults this season. If you haven’t skied with us recently, please consider returning to Vail or Beaver Creek this season. We’d love to get reacquainted.
If you have interest in training to become a guide please get in touch. We are always recruiting good guides, winter and summer. We are also looking for volunteer assistance during the youth learn to ski days. If interested in learning how you can help please contact me. Hopes are high for a busy and enriching ski season. Come be a part of it. You won’t regret it.

By Christine Holmberg, Executive Director Summer is winding down. It happens every year but that doesn't mean I have to like it. The days are still sunny, warm, and inviting but it's the little things that remind us fall is right around the corner. Kids are returning to school, a few leaves are starting to change color, and the highest peaks received their first dusting of snow recently. Yep, that's right, the calendar may say summer but there was a bit of snow up high reminding us that before we know it winter will be here. And that's GREAT news for a ski program!
By Christine Holmberg, Executive Director
2020 is quickly coming to an end and for many it could not come soon enough. To say the last nine months have been challenging is an understatement. There is no need for me to rehash how life as we knew it has been turned upside down. And how there is a faint glow beginning to appear at the end of the proverbial tunnel. We all hope 2021 is drastically different from 2020 but only if it is better than what we just went through. I am a glass half full kinda gal and I choose to remain hopeful that calmer waters are ahead. Just how far ahead remains to be seen but we will get there… eventually. By Christine Holmberg, Executive Director Autumn is officially here and in the Vail Valley the mountains resemble an artist’s canvas brushed with yellow, orange, green and the occasional splash of red thanks to the annual changing of the leaves. As we move into Fall, we reflect over the past six months and the often turbulent ride it’s been. What started off as a fabulous ski season for Foresight Ski Guides came to an abrupt halt at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. While we all know more today than we did back in the early days of March there is still plenty of uncertainty that lies ahead. What I do know is that we, Foresight Ski Guides, will persevere.
