Sledding

This may look like a regular garden-variety unassuming plastic sled but I can assure you that it is far more than that. From snowbanks to sand dunes, happy customers have found so many inventive ways to use this little plastic powerhouse way beyond winter.

There are SO many things that impressed us about this sledding video, but the air they caught off the ramp is probably the best part!

The tragic accident happened in Park County, Colorado.

A great place to go sledding is the old Mesa Creek Ski Area, also known as “Old Powderhorn,” just off the Grand Mesa Scenic Byway.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife is hosting a winter fun day at Crawford State Park with ice fishing, skating, skiing, sledding and free food.

In the latest example of embracing winter, a man on YouTube showed the world -- and Mother Nature -- that plenty of fun can be had, despite the deep freeze a good part of the country has been suffering through the last few weeks.

Sledding can be a dangerous activity. So much so, some cites are banning the activity on city owned property. Is it time for Grand Junction and other western Colorado communities to do the same?

We are now in the midst of a most glorious sledding season. Just be careful out there—you never know who's coming down that hill when you're not looking.
