It's much colder at night so dress in layers for warmth. Glow Tubing offered on Fridays, Saturdays, and Holidays from 5 PM - 9 PM.

Glow Tubing offering nightly from December 20 - 23 and December 26 - January 11.

Snow Play Safety

Snow play outside of tubing hills is permitted on public property including the National Forest, city parks, and picnic areas. If you choose to enjoy snow in these areas, remember:

• Sledding near and into streets is extremely dangerous as cars use roadways year-round.
• Sledding or playing on lake ice is both illegal and life threatening.
• Trespassing on private property is illegal at all times.
• Do not leave broken sleds or trash behind in parks, picnic areas, or other National Forest areas.
• Do not use road turnouts for snow play. Other drivers need them to put chains on, let other drivers pass, and pull over for emergencies.
