Sledding at Berthoud Pass - Good Riddance

I believe I mentioned something about this in an earlier post.... Holy crap, it finally happened. What are the JP's from the Y supposed to do now? Don't worry, i'm sure the Joe Pub's will firgure out plan B. He's a hint, go down to the Fraser Tubing hill, pay the 10 bones, leave town without a broken neck.
On a serious note, i've personally seen some serious brainless activity happening up on the pass. I have absolutely no respect for morons that put Flight for Life copter pilots in danger because some fuking goob hit a port-o-poti at Mach 5.

IDAHO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - The Forest Service said Thursday it was banning sledding and tubing at the former Berthoud Pass ski area following a number of serious accidents.

Violations could result in fines up to $5,000 for individuals.

Visitors can still ski, snowshoe, snowboard and hike at the former ski area on the Continental Divide.

Daniel Lovato, Clear Creek district ranger for the Arapaho National Forest, did not say how many people have been injured sledding there recently but said injuries have been so severe that patients have had to be flown to hospitals by helicopter.
