Just had a fantastic day with family and friends at Hoodoo Ski Bowl on what they call their Autobahn Tube Area. Incredible fun in the snow. The runs were super fast today. So fast in fact that I wasn’t able to take more than 1-2 runs with my son in my lap before they said we couldn’t ride together because we were picking up too much speed. Despite that and the long lines it was a great time. There is a tow rope that will take you to the top if you want to wait in line or you can just walk up. The walk wasn’t too bad although after a few times you can definitely feel the altitude. Once at the top you pick the run you want to go down, plant yourself in your tube (basically and tire inner tube with a nylon cover) and launch yourself downhill. Some people chose to sit while others rode on their bellys. I think the more air that is in your tube teh faster you will go. The top of the run is pretty quick but you really pick up speed when you hit the drop at the midway point. I was pretty happy with my 5 year old son who walked up the hill several times and probably got the most runs of the day in. We’ll be planning more trips throughout the winter.
