A new northern Arizona sledding area was a big hit this winter.

Recreation Resource Management, a national concessionaire that opened a pay-to-sled business on Wing Mountain, was able to recoup all its initial investment costs in one season.

The Wing Mountain Snowplay Area north of Flagstaff saw 12,253 cars, Chief Operating Officer Kelly Moffitt wrote in a letter to the Coconino National Forest. The area charges $10 per car.

Moffitt said most of the area’s business came from Phoenix.
