So me and a few buddies were thinking about setting up a rope tow and a few features at a local sledding hill. Does anyone know where to start, especially with getting permission to set it up?

Oh yeah insurance agencies will have no problems with that go right ahead. I recommend using a lawnmower engine for a bullwheel and bicycle wheels for sheaves.

No chance a tow rope will be allowed to be put in my virtually every city in the U.S.
Hike park is way more realistic, do you live in a city that receives enough snowfall to support a rail park is where I’d start dawg

if your city can build skateparks i’m sure you could convince them to let you build a community rail park or something

I live near Ruby Hill which is a community hikepark where they blow snow to keep it open so I’d suggest something like this. Might be kinda tricky though since Ruby Hill rail yard is funded by winter park.
