Here are some more…
There’s a hill behind the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at 30 W. Dale St. and one south of the parking lot at Cook Communications off Woodmen and Lee Vance View.
If you’re willing to pay the fee to drive up the mountain, you can sled , snowboard, or ski down the old Pikes Peak ski area on Pikes Peak Highway. Warning: this is a pretty long hill to be climbing up many times!!
Another free favorite is a steep bowl off Rampart Range Road (four miles north of US 24 on Baldwin St in Woodland Park).
A few schools are purported to have good sledding hills: Howbert Elementary School, Trailblazer Elementary School, Jenkins Middle School, and Timberview Middle School.
And in Monument there’s Toboggan Hill at Deer Creek Rd and Toboggan Hill Rd 80132. Come on, with a name like that? You know it has to be good!
Have fun and be safe!!
