This Snow Makes Me Think About Sledding!

janetleap

Thinking sledding? Boulder has some great options.

sledding-2

Check out these locations for some of the best sledding around town:

Scott Carpenter Park: This is a mellow, fun slope for the kids, but adults enjoy it too!

Tantra Park [Just South of 46th and Hanover]: This sledding hill can get incredibly packed and at places it is steep.

Foothills Community Park: There are some great, low angle slopes here for kids and adults.

Where do you like to sled around Boulder?

Enjoy The Boulder Star From Far Away and Close Up!

This iconic star watches over Boulder in the winter. Lit starting in November this can be a fun night hike! This moderate hike has two possible approaches. Each one is about 1.2 miles (one way) with roughly 900 feet of elevation gain. Cold temperatures and icy trails call for a little extra gear and preparation, but that’s just part of the fun.
