Deadmans hill…at least that is what we called it when we were kids.
It is right at the bottom of Fox Drive and by the river. You can see it from the freeway. It used to be way more fun when the fence was not installed half way down the hill. They did it to cut the speed down of tobogganers so they would not go smashing through the hay bails and in front of or into cars. Ahh…the good old days! :lol:
Tobogganing is most fun in a crazy carpet. You never know where you are going to go or what or who you are going to hit. :D

I've been to 7 hills long ago...
Alot of people go tobogganning/tubing at Rundle Park too, up near the entrance road.
Umm could try near one of the two ski hills in the city. |

Agreed with Got Boost
When you get onto Fox Drive coming off the Whitemud it's on the right side |

government hill is the best hill the city has left. its right near the museum. My friend broke his arm on it last year from going to fast haha so you know its good :thumbup:
that or fox drives hills. ten bumps in belgravia, or fox drives suicide. Its the hill with the bench at the top. its extremely steep and you actually have to bail at the end before you crash into the horse stables fence. You have about 10 feet of flat after the decline hahahaha. It makes for some killer bails. |

or you could go with this lol, no need for a car to pull, or a hill to go down
had a pivot where the engine and gt joined so you could djust for traction or driftning, home made studded tire (wood screws work wonders), throttle was a bike gear shifter on one ski, the brake was a brake lever on the other. It ran on a mixture of oil and rootbear as the lubricant, then 50/50 mix of octane booster and premium gas |
