Directions: The sled riding hill is located on Totoket Rd, which branches off rt. 146 as a detour through Pine Orchard. Comments: The main sledding area is immediately apparent on a snowy day, as the only parking is along the side of the road. The first, smaller hill is immediately visible from the road. Over that hill at the end of a paved walkway is a much bigger, steeper hill that is very tall and has a very long area of flat ground at the end. To ride all the way to the edge of the woods is a feat. Those two hills are the main ones, but there are plenty of other slopes the be ridden in the area. |

Directions: Sled riding hill on the south side of Cheshire, on Mixville Road, you can't miss it.
Comments: The hill starts out at about a 55 degree angle, but after about 30 feet it tapers to a 45. The only obstacles in the way are small children, but they can be avoided. It's the best hill around. Sledmaster's additional note: This hill originally functioned as a 1 rope tow ski area, started by several Yale students, but this ceased in the mid-late 70's.
