Many ski resorts have tubing hills. The tubing hills are separate from the skiing hills, there is no shared space for both activities.

Every resort I have worked for with a tubing hill has had entirely separate departments dedicated to running their operations. The only connection with the ski resorts is where the profits ultimately goes - for all customer facing purposes they should be looked at as two separate entities.

If you’re going tubing at one of these places, you’re not tubing at a ski resort. You’re tubing at a tubing hill that just happens to be adjacent to and owned by the ski resort.
