Tobagganing at Pinchot State Park - The toboggan run cost $20,000 to build and was completed October 11, 1963, ready for operation in January 1964. Almost a quarter mile long with a 72-foot vertical drop, the run used 95 concrete piers. The foundation was part of the machinery shed and there was also a concession stand for hot food. In January, 1968, operations ceased. Unfortunately, the run was built on the south side of a hill, the sun melted the ice too easily, forcing closures.
