Toboggan chute (A photo on page 1 showed the new toboggan run at Mirror Lake, as seen looking toward the top from the lake.) Not merely a run but a parkway or expressway or freeway or something big, because this is it. The toboggan chute is a great addition to this winter sports center. It has four lanes with the take-off 50 feet above the water and a 164-foot-long chute. The village of Lake Placid and town of North Elba are each contributing half to the $5,000 cost.
