Frequently Asked Questions

 

Can anybody use the tubing park? 

No, there is a minimum height requirement of 42 inches. In addition, riders must be able to get in and out of a tube comfortably, as well be able to pull or carry their own tube while walking on snow.  Parents can reserve a space at our Children's Center for children too young to tube. 

Do I  bring my own tube?  No. Tubes are included in the price of the park ticket.

Is lap riding allowed?  No, for safety reasons, there is a limit of one person per tube.

Can I hold on to another tube and ride to the bottom together?

No, in the interest of safety, the tubing lanes are designed for one tube at a time.

How long is the tubing park?

The tubing lanes are 450 feet long. There are 3 separate lanes, which begin on an elevated ramp. The gentle slope propels the tube down the mountain and riders are brought to a stop on an uphill ramp at the end of the lane. 

How do I get back up to the top of the hill?  The tubing park has a moving ground lift that transports both the snow tube and the rider back to the top of the slope.

Where do I park? 

Tubers should park in the lower parking lot, just below the West Lodge. This lot is a short walk to the lodge and tubing facility. 

If I want to bring a group,  may I reserve part of the lodge? 

The West Lodge is open on weekends during peak ski season, and on holidays and holiday weeks.   We can usually reserve a table or two for your party if you are bringing a group.  Please call ahead to check on availability and to make a reservation, 413-339-6617.
