SleddingSledding is a common activity in wintry areas. The term refers to traveling down any sort of decline, typically in cold weather, on a surface such as snow. Flat, plastic discs can be used, or wooden flats with metal runners. Similar to sliding, but requiring a "sled". Sledding Techniques The first ride down a hill on a sled is the most important, but most difficult, as it determines the path of the sled for further runs down the hill. It is essential to steer the sled along the most exciting course, perhaps adding twists and turns to make the run down the hill more exciting, or faster! With each course down the hill, the sled's path through the snow becomes more icy. After several runs down a hill, the path will be very slick. This adds to the enjoyment of sledding. See also
