6. Warning: Under Colorado law, a skier assumes the risk of any injury to person or property resulting from any of the inherent dangers and risks of skiing and may not recover from any ski area operator for any injury resulting from any of the inherent dangers and risks of skiing, including: changing weather conditions; existing and changing snow conditions’ bare spots; rocks; stumps; trees; collisions with natural objects, man-made objects, or other skiers; variations in terrain; and the failure of skiers to ski within their own abilities.

Reservations must be canceled by 5:00pm (Mountain Time) the day before your scheduled tubing time, in order to avoid a $10/person/hour cancelation fee. Please email recreation@townoffrisco.com or call 970-668-2558 to cancel. Please leave a voicemail if no one answers, a voicemail received prior to 5pm the day before your reservation will count as a valid cancelation. No-call, no-shows will not be refunded.

Tubing reservations are made for a specific, 1-hour time slot. The tubing hill is often fully booked and typically cannot accommodate guests who arrive late, after their scheduled time. The Adventure Park staff are happy to move reservations to a different day if availability allows, otherwise, please refer to the above cancellation policy.

At all times, a service animal must be under the control of its handler. A service animal shall have a harness, leash, or other tether, unless either the handler is unable because of a disability to use a harness, leash, or other tether, or the use of a harness, leash, or other tether would interfere with the service animal’s safe, effective performance of work or tasks, in which case the service animal must be otherwise under the handler’s control (e.g., voice control, signals, or other effective means). Where it is not obvious that an animal is a service animal, Town of Frisco employees may inquire as to the following per ADA guidelines:

1. Is the service animal required because of a disability?
2. What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

All service animals must fall within current ADA guidelines.

Individuals with disabilities are permitted to be accompanied by their service animal in all public areas of the Frisco Adventure Park. However, the Frisco Adventure Park prohibits the public from having service animals on ski lifts (magic carpet lift), ski/ride hill, and tubing hill. The use of service animals on ski lifts and ski terrain impedes the reasonably safe operation of the Frisco Adventure Park’s on-slope activities. These safety concerns include the real potential for conflicts between service animals and skiers, riders, and tubers and are compounded by the large volume of lift, slope and trail use. These safety requirements are based on actual risks and are not intended to be discriminatory in any way.

Drone use is not permitted. Please review the Town of Frisco’s drone policy for commercial uses for further details.

If you are traveling to the Frisco Adventure Park on I-70, please be aware that heavy traffic will likely exist on all weekends, holidays, and during snow storms. Please allow extra time for your trip to the Frisco Adventure Park. If traveling from the Denver area, we recommend adding an additional 2 hours of planned travel time when traveling on a Saturday. Better to be safe than sorry!

The Colorado Department of Transportation provides road condition updates on their website.

How long will I tube for?

• Each tubing session is 1 hour long. (Example: if you reserve a spot at 3:15pm, you will tube from 3:15pm-4:15pm)

When should I arrive?

• Please arrive 15-20 minutes early to complete our check-in process. Groups of 20 or more, please arrive 30 minutes early. Your session time starts with or without you.

If I purchase an hour of tubing, can I show up at any time?

• The time slot and date that you sign up for is set, we may not be able to add time to your session if you arrive late. Please pay close attention to the time of your session shown on your receipt.

My child is scared, can I tube with them?

• Each tube is a single tube and each person rides in their own tube, but depending on conditions, we may allow groups of up to 4 tubes to travel down the lane together. Every person tubing must have a valid tubing ticket.

Can my child ride in my tube with me?

• Everyone rides in their own tube, no tube sharing or lap riding.

Can I tube with my purse/bag/backpack?

• Leave bags and backpacks in your vehicle, if possible. Bags can make sitting in a tube awkward and uncomfortable.

What is the height requirement?

• All tubers must meet the 36in height requirement for safety. No one under 36 inches tall will be permitted to tube, no exceptions. There is otherwise no age requirement, although children under 8 years of age be accompanied by an adult with a snow tubing ticket.

Can my dog come tubing with me?

• We love pups, but pups and snow tubing don’t mix. Please leave your four-legged friends at home. See our Service Animal Policy above for more information.

Is there food for purchase at the park?

• The Day Lodge has Frisco Haus, a small cafe serving breakfast and lunch items, coffee, sodas, and other non-alcoholic beverages, check out their menu. The Nordic Center, across the street from the Day Lodge, also has a small selection of food items for purchase.

The free county-wide Summit Stage bus system can drop you off by the colorful pedestrian tunnel that takes you into the park. We are approximately 1 mile from Frisco Main St. via the recreation path. Once you arrive, check-in is located inside the Day Lodge ticket office.

What if I want more than 1 hour of tubing?

• If you would like to tube for more than one hour, you may book a second tubing session. We recommend booking consecutive hours, i.e. 9:45am and 10:45am. Let us know when you check in that you booked 2 hours!

How do I make a reservation?

• We recommend viewing and making tubing reservations on a computer, not a phone. If you need to make the reservation on your phone, the calendar view tends to be the most user-friendly. Click the button above to make a reservation.

The tubing date/sessions I want are sold out, is there a waitlist?

• We do not have a waitlist. The best way to see if we have availability is to check our reservations website, it will update live if there are any cancellations. If a session is full, please check another date or time, we do not have additional tickets to sell once we reach max capacity.

I need help getting in and out of my tube/riding the carpet lift/understanding the safety video, etc…

• If you or anyone in your group have additional needs that we can support, please don’t hesitate to ask. Our team is equipped to help with a variety of needs, and we are happy to be of assistance when able.

I’m travelling from Denver and traffic is bad. I think I might be late for my session, what are my options?

• If traveling from outside the county, we recommend giving yourself an extra hour of travel time at a minimum. If you think you will be late, give us a call and let us know. We cannot guarantee any additional time for your tubing session as we are often at full capacity, but we will do our best to give you as much tubing time as possible.

My parents are coming with us but they aren’t tubing. Where can they wait?

• Non-tubers are welcome to spend time in our lodge while their party is tubing. There is also a viewing area on the snow surface if you want to watch the tubers.

Is there food available at the Adventure Park?

• The Day Lodge is proud to host Frisco Haus, a cafe serving a variety of food options for purchase and of course, hot chocolate – a snow tubing staple!

What else is there to do at the Adventure Park?

• Check out our ski and ride hill, with lessons available through SnowSchoolers. The terrain park is always an exciting time for the more advanced skiers and snowboarders. Our Nordic center will outfit you for a great day on the trails, either snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. Two Below Zero offers sleigh rides across the peninsula. For those willing to walk back up the hill, the sledding area is a perfect family activity. BYOS (bring your own sled!)
