An axle is mounted to the axle support bracket. The axle extends transversely over the wheel receiving opening. A ground engaging wheel is rotatably mounted on the axle and extends through the wheel receiving opening. The wheel supports the ski in an operative position above and substantially parallel to a groundsurface. A mounting bracket is fixed to the axle. The mounting bracket mounts the ski to a wheelchair for 360 degree rotation about a substantially vertical axis. The length of the ski is sized to permit unobstructed 360 degree rotation.
