Sledding Safety Tips
- Sled on designated hills.
- Stay away from roads, rivers, railways and parking lots.
- Wear a helmet to reduce the risk of head injury.
- Prevent strangulation by wearing neck warmers instead of scarves and avoiding outer clothing with drawstrings.
- Only sled in the daylight or on well lit hills.
- Go down the hill sitting up or kneeling on the sled. Never slide down headfirst or standing up.
- Be sure your path is clear of obstacles and people all the way down the hill.
- Stay in control of your sled. Avoid inner tubes and snow discs that are difficult to control.
- If you fall off or stop unexpectedly, quickly move out of the way of other sledders.
- Walk back up the side of the hill, away from other sledders.
If there is an emergency - call 911.
