While Lake Chelan is located on the eastern side of the Cascade Mountains and typically has colder temperatures and drier snow, you will still want to ensure you have the proper type of sled. There are no locations in the Lake Chelan area to rent sleds, although during the heart of the winter you will find them for sale at a handful of stores. Plastic sleds are often the best bet, although inflatable tubes can work as well. Avoid sleds with metal runners or blades, as the snow often isn't compact enough and the sleds may struggle to glide downhill, plus the metal runners can be a safety concern. Check out some of the most popular sleds from Amazon below :
