Tubing at Camp Tracy

Recently our ward rented out Camp Tracy up Millcreek Canyon in Salt Lake. The rental comes with access to the lodge (which is big) and the tubing hill. We had people bring soup in crockpots for dinner that we served with rolls and butter. Those who didn't want to tube stayed inside and played games in the lodge. The lodge is very big and nice! It has a nice big kitchen, bathrooms with plumbing, tables and chairs, and a fireplace that you need to bring your own wood for. The tubing hill is close to the lodge and is lit up at night. Only tubes are allowed on the hill so we also brought up an air compressor to fill everyone's tubes up. The tubing hill is pretty long and steep so you go pretty fast. You hike up the side of the mountain to the top of the hill and then it runs through the trees and out to the clearing at the bottom. They give out vouchers so it's free to drive up during the day, or if you go at night the guard station closes at 6:00 pm and then it's free anyway. It cost $50/hour to rent out both the tubing hill and the lodge which is really cheap. Camp Tracy is owned by the Boy Scouts of America so you can find their contact information on their website.
