MOUNT HOY AT BLACKWELL FOREST PRESERVE, WARRENVILLE
 Take a thrilling 800-foot ride down Mount Hoy when 3
 or more inches of snow covers the hill. You can only use Forest Preserve District inner tubes on Mount Hoy, but
you can rent them weekends and school holidays from December thru the end of February at the base of the hill. Rentals start at $5. And tubing is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

WILMOT MOUNTAIN TUBING, LAKE GENEVA, WI Wilmot Mountain provides guests with tubes to go down the hill and two surface conveyor lifts to take you back up. That way all of your energy is saved for the excitement. Wilmot Mountain's tubing area is a different experience than the typical snow hill, with 22 lanes of over 1,000
feet in length. And once you have done a few runs down the hill and are looking to warm up for a while, head to
the tubing lodge for a snack, a drink, or just to watch the excitement from our deck overlooking the whole area. Visit www.wilmotmountain.com/snow-tubing for details.
