Sledding - Eastern Oregon Style

Sledding in Eastern Oregon is a hit and miss proposition.  If you go to the mountains, you can usually ind quality snow and a great run.  When you're in the lowlands, that's not always this case.  Where we live it's been a banner year for snow.  This year for Christmas we bought the kids the Sonic Snow Tube from LL Bean.  It was the smartest thing we've done in a while.  Instead of spending $25 each year on a plastic sled, we bought one that will last a long time.  Here's a little video of our last adventure.  The new snow tube is near the end of the video.


Instead of a rope tow we used a four wheeler and a Toyota.  The four wheeler would go to the bottom of the mile ling run and make sure the kids made it down okay.  The crawler would follow the last kid down and cart them back up to the top.  Lots of fun...very cold.
