Of course back in the day, you were happy just to go sledding for the sheer joy of it.

But no matter what weird things you try on a snow covered hill in December, there is one certainty.  If you want to try it again it means starting the long trek back up.

    Yeah, it’s a good time. Each year working my way up that hill is getting to feel like more of a chore! :) I remember when that paddle was brand new. It’s a Beale and has survived about everything we’ve thrown at it. http://www.bealepaddles.com/
