Gail Castonguay's Helper Handle

Gail Castonguay's Helper Handle

Because of arthritis in my hands, I have difficulty holding onto the sled handle bar with my left hand while pulling out the snow hook. I thought about my water skiing days and that it was easier to hold onto the tow rope. So, I hooked up this rope the the handle bars and used a small piece of garden hose as a handle. This will give me some flexibility in leaning over to get the snow hook, especially if the dogs are pulling hard forward.
