This page is dedicated to winter snow tubing, not summer tubing.
Essential Information for Snow Tubing Enthusiasts
Here's what you need to know before you hit the slopes:
- Height Requirement: Riders must be at least 42 inches tall and able to ride in their own tube.
- Tickets: Sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Capacity: Limited to 200 people per session to ensure everyone enjoys plenty of runs without excessive waiting.
- Reservations: Not offered at this time, but tickets can be purchased same day for a later session.
It is important to note that we do not allow children to ride on a parent’s lap. This is a strict height requirement.
Safety First
All tubing participants must adhere to the following safety guidelines:
- Have a valid lift ticket and wear it correctly. No swapping jackets or tickets.
- Know how to load and unload safely when using the tubing run lift.
- Drag your feet to slow down as you near the end of the tubing run.
- Close toed shoes are required.
Tubing may be hazardous. There are risks associated with this activity including, but not limited to, changing weather and surface conditions, speed and falling from the tube, slipping or falling while walking on the tube run area, collisions with other tubers as well as natural and man-made objects, taking drugs, and the lack of control of speed and direction.

Tubing Sessions and Equipment
Tubing is available in two-hour blocks:
- 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM
- 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
- 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Our slope and lift are designed for our tubes which have a liner, handles and a leash on them.
Height and Ability Requirements
There is no age restriction, but there is a size restriction. Riders must be a minimum of 42″ (inches) tall, and able to ride in their own tube. They must be able to get in and out of the tube on their own, and be able to get out of the lane on their own once they reach the bottom. 460 feet of thrill for anyone 42″ or taller and able to ride in their own tube.
Once you purchase your tickets at the ticket window, you’ll walk through the parking lot to the entrance of the tubing hill. An attendant will meet you to help you find a tube, check your wristband or single ride ticket and give you the rules. The conveyor will take you to the top of the hill.
TUBING SAFETY VIDEO
Spectator Information
There’s a spectator viewing area at the bottom of the tubing hill with bleachers that’s perfect for pictures and video. No spectators allowed within the designated tubing areas for your safety.

Season Dates and Snowmaking
With the addition of our new snowmaking system which covers our beginner slope and tubing hill, we aim to get open those areas by the middle of December. With as far South as we are, and Mother Nature being unpredictable at best, we aim to keep our beginner slope and tubing hill open through Spring Break in March.
Other Activities and Services
We offer a beginner ski package for $125 which includes a 90 minute group lesson, rentals, and a lift ticket. It is one of the cheapest packages in the country, and a great introduction to the winter sport. Our group lessons are offered each day we’re open at 10:00 AM.
Please note: We do not rent snowskates (i.e. Sled Dogs, ODR, Salomon Snow Skates, etc.), snowbikes or snow blades. We do not allow snow skates on the mountains as they’re excessively hard on the snow, punch holes in it creating hazards for other skiers and riders, and don’t have a metal edge. We do not allow snowbikes on the mountain as we are not currently equipped on our lifts to handle loading and unloading.
Lodging and Accessibility
We do not have any lodging on site, but the village of Cloudcroft is located 2 miles west of us on US Highway 82. Cloudcroft offers many different cabins and hotels to enjoy your ski vacation.
Our upper mountain slopes and beginner slope is designed and maintained exclusively for skiing and snowboarding. Our tubing hill is constructed for the use of our special tubes that have a liner, handles and leash. We do not have any areas designed for sleds, saucers, or other tubes.

Lift Tickets and Slope Access
In order to gain access to our slopes, we require a lift ticket. Our lift tickets are non-transferable, and grant you access to the areas we maintain through snowmaking and the snow cat. To be in these areas you must be on skis or snowboards. Can I be on the beginner slope with my kid? In order to gain access to our slopes, we require a lift ticket.
Pet Policy
While we are friends of our furry four legged counterparts, we prefer you to leave them at home. If you must bring your pet, they are limited to the parking lot area and must remain on a leash.
Additional Information
- At this time, we do not offer a multi-day lift ticket.
- No reservations are necessary for the beginner group lesson, which starts each day we’re open at 10:00 AM.
- We currently only offer skiing, snowboarding, and tubing.
Dining
The restaurant is located on the upper level of the chalet. There is a set of stairs on each end of the building that will take you there. We do not have a bar.
