Snow Tubing, Beer & BBQ

Come Play in the Snow with Us — Tubing Is Fun!

Tired of sledding on the “hills” in Central Park...or waiting for snow? Want a real ride? Jump on the wagon for a day of hard-core snow tubing!

You’ll have your choice between the single and the Fiver (five-person) tubes and alternate whenever you like. Once you’ve got your tube, hitch a ride up the mountain on any one of four tows, jump in your tube and barrel down on one of ten different extended runs. This newly expanded snow tubing park has a powerful snowmaking system that will guarantee a great ride and a terrific time. Finish with a cup of hot cocoa.

Afterward, we’ll relax over a beer tasting at an award-winning microbrewery, housed in a renovated late-1800s farmhouse. A tour features a ten-barrel brewhouse, featuring a gleaming copper-topped, brick-encased brew kettle, a mash tun, a 360-gallon hot liquor back and a grist mill. Also two lager conditioning tanks, four open fermentation tanks, eight bright beer conditioning tanks, and six Firkin cask conditioning tanks, all of which can be seen from the bar or the Fermentation Lounge and game room.

We will feast on lunch at a 20% discount and handcrafted pints (bring cash).

Space is limited for this trip; sign up soon to secure your spot!

Experienced, Fun & Qualified Guides

From cycling across the United States to leading horse treks through New Zealand to scaling Nepalese peaks, Outdoor Bound guides have real-world outdoor experience. Collectively, they have hiked, biked, climbed and kayaked tens of thousands of miles around the globe.

Whether their professional backgrounds are as teachers, personal trainers, artists, environmentalists or business leaders, they all have an extensive knowledge of the natural world and local history. Each guide has also passed a rigorous guide certification program and is trained in wilderness first aid or as a Wilderness First Responder.

Diverse & Interesting Groups

There is no typical Outdoor Bound participant. While ages typically range from 20 to 50, those who come to experience outdoor adventure range from singles to couples, from lawyers to waiters. They are a mix of women and men. While the group is always diverse, you will certainly feel welcome. Our guides go the extra mile to make the atmosphere of each trip social and fun. Many people in the Outdoor Bound community have forged lasting friendships as a result of our trips.

New Experiences

Skydiving, ice-climbing, hot-air ballooning, skiing and hiking every weekend are just a few of Outdoor Bound’s year-round adventures. These trips are accessible to everyone, including the novice, who might feel a little uneasy, the young urban professional trying to get away and even the adrenaline junkie looking for a new rush.

Environmental Awareness

“Leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but pictures,” is the Leave No Trace motto embraced by Outdoor Bound. From purchasing bamboo T-shirts to printing with soy-based inks on recycled paper, Outdoor Bound strives to create the least environmental impact possible while on trips and in the office.
