We had a hill in my hometown nicknamed "suicide" where we sledded.... it had gullies, went through the woods and had a tree in the middle of a hairpin turn in the middle of the run through the trees, oh it ended up on a road and if you could cross the road you went through cattails and ended up in a tidal creek - water or mud depending on moon phase if you turned right, you went in a pond, or on the ice on the pond, depending. We had more than our share of injuries - broken bones, knocked out teeth, stitches... nobody sued... because our parents told us....
You sled on Suicide Hill, you walk yourself down to Drs . Stopford & Ward (husband and wife, we grew up with their kids), it's only a mile and a half, so if it's your leg, your friends and brothers can put you on a sled and drag you.
