    Great hill-we used to go there with the Scout troop and then go to the hot dog place for lunch-I think it's been moved since those days.

    The cheapest round and toboggan sleds are our favorites. Tubes are awesome if you have enough snow to cover hazards.
    For pricey heirloom sleds try http://www.mountainboysleds.com/index.html made local and sold world wide (still on my list).

    Damn after web searching looks like a new good old fashioned sled run anywhere from $80-$150. I'd be keeping my eye out at thrift stores,craig's list,and garage sales for used sleds.
