Tubing in Heber

My roommate Katie invited me and one of my other roommates, Marci, to go tubing in Heber with her and her family. It is where the cross country skiing took place for the Olympics. They have this machine that drags you up the hill on your tube so you don't have to walk up the hill (this is very convenient). Once you get to the top they have different tracks you can go on. You can go by yourself or with one other person. The first time I went with Marci and we went sitting on the tube instead of on our stomachs and we soon learned that we had made the wrong decision. We got turned around so we were going backwards and I didn't know what to do. Me being short and all I couldn't reach the ground while in the tube so Marci had to drag her feet and hands to get both of us to stop. It all worked out ok but it was pretty scary for a minute! The last time we went down I went with Marci again and we decide to go on our stomachs and it went a lot smoother besides the fact that we started sliding towards the other track and Marci almost went over onto the track next to us! I had to hurry and start dragging my feet to try and get her back over. It was pretty intense. Luckily, we survived and no one got hurt.:)
