Tubing at Soldier Hollow

Last night we took the kids to Heber City for some tubing at Soldier Hollow. A girl in our ward reserved a two hour block for us to go up with some other families in our ward for a big family home evening night out. This is a really fun place to tube and the best part was you didn't have to walk up the hill in order to tube down it.

This is Luke on the pulley that gives you a ride up to the top of the hill.

A lot of snow ball fights would take place on the trip up to the top.

Britt and Savannah didn't want the night to end, unless there was hot chocolate!

Jess and Tyler snuggling to stay warm.

After a few turns down the hill we discovered if you hook up with other people (so that you have more weight) going down the hill you go a lot faster. So the last few trips down, Clay and I would go together and then the last time we all hooked up and went down as a family (minus Jess of course). Everyone has their own tubes, but one person hangs on to all the loops that connect each tube and then you fly down the hill. I took a video of when we went down all together.
