Click on the accompanying photo to enlarge it and check out this winter time play ground. The thrill of a lifetime awaits the brave soul who can make it to the top of the run; you just hope you can hold your breath long enough to reach the bottom. Look closely and you can follow the course of the run from top to bottom.
Of course, if you don't get stopped you'll slide right out onto Lake Tutshi Olympic Skating Arena. No problem there as the lake is about 20 miles long and very wide.
Lest you think I am kidding we saw a parasail a few miles down the road back toward Skagway. The weather conditions at this point included below freezing temps with 20mph wind and blowing snow. You couldn't see the individual as they were in a depression/ravine away from the roadway. Whoever was attached to it was probably - - we think - - trying to air-power a sled or maybe skis.
This person was a definite candidate for the Luge Run.
