If you’ve been tubing at Soldier Hollow before, you’ll love Gorgoza Park. The price is a little steep, but it’s worth going at least once during the winter.  Gorgoza park has three beginner and four advanced lanes with three lifts to serve them. When we got there it was FREEZING cold, so we opted to maximize our fun time and went straight to the advanced lanes.

I like riding the lift up almost as much as I like the ride down. I’m a sucker for pleasant slow rides in between intense rip-roaring ones. Once we selected our tubes we climbed aboard just before they were attached to a pull rope. For the next 15 minutes or so we got to enjoy some good scenery, conversation and jokes as we slid to the top.

Once at the top we selected our preferred tubing lane. That night it was so cold that the snow was frozen solid in many areas so we were not allowed to link together during the run. Instead, we each went separately.   Jas brought his new Flip UltraHD and created a little video of our night.  If the first half bores you feel free to skip ahead, but be sure not to miss the end to find out just how fast we went down the icy hill.
