Snow tubing in Massachusetts is a fun winter sport that anyone can do

Snow tubing is a jazzed-up version of the old flying saucers, and it causes just as much delight as those old saucers did. Requires no special athletic aptitude; just climb on and fly where gravity takes you. Lots of fun for children and families in a wide ranges of ages and abilities
