wooden sled

Timber snow vehicle

A wooden sled is a vehicle for sliding over snow or ice, with runners or a flat bottom made primarily of wood.

Traditional wooden sleds include toboggans, flexible flyers, and simple flat-bottomed designs for children: We pulled the wooden sled up the hill for another run.

The term distinguishes older craftsmanship from modern plastic alternatives.
