Abstract
A snow sled having a front steering ski rotatably and pivotally mounted on the front end of the sled body in such a way that the ski is turnable by the sled rider to steer the sled, and that turning of the ski in either direction from its center position effects tilting of the ski about its longitudinal axis to present in plow-like fashion the bottom surface of the ski in the direction of sled movement for enhancing the steering action of the ski. The sled is also equipped with a novel braking arrangement operable by the rider.
