Thanks for posting! I live in Vermont, and do rodel sledding (looks like an Olympic luge, but with wooden steel-bottomed runners) on mountain roads that the state closes in the winter. There are four here in VT that I sled on regularly that are between 1.3 miles and 2 miles long that provide a super fun run, so it was fun to watch someone else doing the same thing in Montana. I abruptly stopped being able to ski a few years ago due to one of my knees and starting doing this, and find that I actually love it just as much. Especially steering around hairpin turns, and just being in the mountains again including even the long walks up to the top. In Europe "rodel" runs are done on switchbacking mountain roads that are integrated into ski resorts, and are sometimes really long-- like up to 9 miles--at the end of which sledders can take a gondola or chairlift back up to the top. Would love to go over there sometime to do it. I imagine there must be more than a few people in the Northeastern and Western U.S. who are sledding on runs like we are, but I guess it takes some figuring out where to go. You need a road or run that's smooth that has some pitch to it, but not too much. One of the places I go to gets me up to about 50 mph, which is really faster than I would like to be going, so I only head there when conditions are perfect. Would love to try Mount Washington's groomed toll road (in the White Mountains of New Hampshire), about 4,500 vertical feet over 7 plus miles. I saw from one of your replies that you filmed this around Butte. I have family moving to Bozeman, so may end up being there at some point in the winter. Would be great if there are some roads around there I could try out.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmKlkJZ3bZZ-eNE

I'm glad ya liked the ride down the hill with us. It sounds like a ton of fun there in VT as well ! Ya, I understand the knee and skiing thing. My knees hurt after a skiing day as well. I have to go slower, maybe miss some of the moguls, and only take the short numbs now. It's kind of a hard pill to swallow. Bozeman is a great town, it's growing into 1 of the largest city's in Montana. They get lots of snow there as well. Well thanks for reaching out and take care 🙂
