Colorado is all about skiing and snowboarding, I know, but if you’d rather relax a bit more while coming down the side of a snowy mountain, Steamboat Springs has something for you!

Tube Howelsen allows you to rent a huge tube, take a carpet ride up in a beautiful covered tunnel that features a light show, and enjoy a memorable ride down a dual-lane course.

Tube Howelsen requires reservations. Tubers need to be at least 36″ tall and only one person per tube. Prices vary depending on the day and time of year, but they start at $30 per rider. All the details can be found here.
