Boxing Day Sledding Tweetup

December 19, 2009 by @Valette

It’s a proven fact that sledding is good for one’s health. It provides ample opportunity to fill one’s lungs with fresh and crisp air and one’s blood with quick jolts of adrenaline. It is also known as the best way to get over all of the extra calories that come with the holidays. This Boxing Day, let’s sled down Powerline Pass and Gasline Pass.

Location

We will meet at the end of Sultana Drive, marked on the map as a P, at 12:00pm on December 26. By 12:15 we will cram as many people and sleds into as few 4×4 or AWD vehicles as possible and drive to the Glen Alps Parking Lot at the base of Flattop. After a short walk we will be ready for a great 2-mile sledding extravaganza!

What to Bring

  • Warm clothes
  • Snow gear: pants, boots, gloves, scarf, hat
  • A sled or two, something fast and fun
  • Thermos of hot cocoa for the bottom of the hill
  • This is a family-friendly tweetup, so bring as many friends and family as you can

Caveats

If the weather turns terrible the sledding tweetup will be canceled; a determination on the weather will be made closer to Boxing Day. We will also need a number of 4×4 or AWD vehicles capable of making the drive up to the Glen Alps parking lot and drivers willing to shuttle others.
