Our winter months are glacial in every sense of the word: they are four-letter-word-shouting cold and pass unbearably slowly. But rather than allowing you to settle into the usual seasonal apathy, the pro-action folks at Urban Escapes present an existential alternative: to tube or not to tube? That means snow tubing, of course, the exhilarating highlight of a get-up-get-down day in the Sterling Forest. First up is a four-mile hike through the scenic New York-New Jersey Highlands; then, the evocative pastime of hurtling down snowy hills willy-nilly on a rubber ring. Besides the imperative safety pointers, hot chocolate and other treats are provided.
