We had the “Seven Sisters” hill. Each “sister” was a larger hump as you descended. You’d get airborne by the third, and the last one (if you could stay aboard the sled) would launch you 10-15 feet in the air, to land on the river ice.
The whole hillside is condoms now. Sigh.
(NOT a typo. I refer to those filing cabinet dwellings as condoms, not condominiums.)
Condoms, lol. We’ve got some of those atop Sugar Mountain here in NC. Looks like the Borg mothership landed up there. They passed a ridgetop law just because of those things. Not that I favor such restrictions on use of private property, but man are they ugly and spoil the vista, so I understand the sentiment. Heck of a view from inside, though. Bet the wind’s something else up there and annual snowfall on a par with Buffalo. Probably the only place in the state where a snow blower is in order and gets regular use.
