If you are looking for something for the younger kiddos that's also super laid back and free, check out the sledding area built by the trail crew from Basin Recreation. The FCD Hill, is a small hill at the Overland Trailhead (6358 Overland Dr.) behind the Tanger Outlet Mall. It was made using leftover soil from another Basin Rec. project in the area and although they don't have plans to groom it, the snow should stay packed thanks to the many eager kids looking to use it. You can make use of the area for some sliding any time from dawn to dusk, permitted there is enough snow on the ground.

As Park City's premiere tubing destination, Woodward Park City (3863 W. Kilby Rd.) promises thrills for all ages with ten lanes (lower lanes for ages 3 to 5 and big tuber lanes for anyone 6 and older). The best thing about this experience is, of course, the tow service so you can enjoy the adrenaline pumping downhill without the dreaded trudge uphill for another slide. Reservations are strongly encouraged for their two-hour sessions (check rates here). Woodward Park City is open seven days a week in winter. Just remember, if you're looking for super fast sliding, choose a day when it's not snowing as the fresh flakes can make the tubes sticky. 

Nestled 2o minutes outside of Park City in the midst of the Wasatch Mountains of the Heber Valley, the Toyota Tubing Hill at Soldier Hollow (2002 Soldier Hollow Lane) in Midway, boasts 1,200 feet of sliding and gliding fun. It may be a bit further away, but if you're looking for the longest runs with spectacular views, this is the place. The Soldier Hollow Nordic Center, which hosted a number of events during the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, offers 2-hour tubing sessions for anyone ages 3 and older, and can even help with arrangements for visually impaired tubers. It's first come, first serve so we suggest making a reservation via their online system. 

This popular Nordic skiing area (take exit 134 off I-80) also boasts a long, gradual incline just next to the golf clubhouse (which is closed in the winter), ideal for sledding. Crowds gather here often on sunny days -- particularly when the valley is socked in with an inversion -- but there's usually plenty of room for all. Just be sure to respect the skiers in the area by staying off the groomed classic and skate-skiing lanes.
