Have you ever tried cross country skiing?

do you mean that someone who is in a wheelchair can go skiing?
Yep. They use a device called a sit-ski along with outrigger skis to help control themselves. You'd probably want to start with an alpine skiing instructor before trying it solo though.
I actually have to use a wheelchair and always assumed I couldn't go skiiing so this is interesting for me to learn
Some people get really good at it. The sit ski is like a seat with a ski at the bottom. The outrigger skis are like miniature skis on the end of poles. 
I think that would be really neat to try.

Paralympic alpine skiing is an adaptation of alpine skiing for athletes with a disability. The sport evolved from the efforts of disabled veterans in Germany and Austria during and after the Second World War. The sport is governed by the International Paralympic Committee Sports Committee.
