the park bowl near the dragon park ( aka eckhart park ) is a popular local spot with steep hills that can make for some mighty exciting sledding.

every year – i suspect much to chagrin of city officials since bones get broken most years – kids set up a sled jump; and this is the first year that odin mustered the courage to give it a try.

needless to say, he had a whole lotta fun and sledding may never be the same! it’s a little hard to tell from the angle but he probably got 2-3 feet off the ground on this run.
