10. Winter Park, CO needs to upgrade..

Hi,
Used to do the "Alpine Slide" in Winter Park during the summer. Not nearly as long as this and you go down on a cemet track, and there are staff all along the way telling you to slow down. Which actually is a good idea because you can go over the edge of the track. Sure was fun though, not sure if they have expanded it, or if they even still have it.

Peace
