Signs have been posted to lead the way to the parking area. The hill can be accessed from Park or from the RRCC.
The hill was completed and a joy for all those that chose to slide. The ride down is worth the hike up the hill.
Special thanks to Mike (City of Eveleth) for all the work he did to make this vision a reality.
Special thanks to: Connie, Kathy, and Barb (Parks Commission)
People of all ages enjoyed the festivities. Parents came with their children, grandparents brought their grandchildren....
The methods were broad: from inner tubes, to sleds of all sizes, shapes, etc. to snowboards....
The day was cold, but the hot chocolate, cookies, and fire helped to warm up...
A contest was held :
54 entries were received and include names such as:
Lightning Hill; Snowville Hill; Hat Trick Hill; Happy Hill; Widow maker hill; Golden Bear Hill; RRCC Run; Sub Zero Hill; Frost Bite Ridge; Slippery Slope; Northern Heights; Quite a Hike Hill; Heck of a Hill; Big Freeze Expressway; Eveleth Express; Jack Frost Hill; "RRCC On" Sliding Hill.
