CODY, Wyo. — The federal government has approved plans for a new zip line course and tubing hill at the Sleeping Giant Ski Area west of Cody.

The U.S. Forest Service announced the approval Friday. The decision is subject to appeal, but it gives permission for the construction of a zip line course within the existing ski area footprint for summer use and construction of a tubing hill within the developed footprint of the ski area.

As the nation's first national forest, the Shoshone National Forest has 2.4 million acres.
