When we lived remotely in the mountains of Colorado we received on average 265" of snow a year. When we first moved there we looked for a suitable place to sled and we didn't really find a safe and good place to go sledding. We thought we would try our driveway which was 100 yards long and sure enough it was the perfect sled run. I could also groom it with the tractor and pack it down to make it the perfect run. It went out on the road at an angle and we could then go another distance down the road.
We had bought plastic bob sleds when we first moved there and having the very best sledding run at our own home was ideal. We would wait until the snow along the driveway and road was banked to 2-3 feet deep so we could use it to to make a turn and then go on down the road. It was a fun time and we did it until we were at an age where most folks wouldn't try it.
