Overview
The Extreme Toboggan Challenge is a location in the Gnawnia region requiring a minimum rank of Recruit to enter.
Mice in the Extreme Toboggan Challenge will not steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
It is recommended that Hunters use the Great Winter Hunt Cheeses to progress through the area. Arctic Asiago Cheese is preferred over other cheeses for its bonus effect while on a Toboggan Course.
Toboggan Courses
There are 5 levels of difficulty in the Extreme Toboggan Challenge.
From least to most difficult, the courses are: Green Circle, Blue Square, Black Diamond, Double Black Diamond, and Orange Rectangle
The only requirement for unlocking more difficult courses is the number of upgrades made to the Hunter's toboggan.
Upgrading The Toboggan
From the HUD, Hunters can use the Upgrade button to improve various aspects of their toboggan. 3 areas can be improved upon: Speed, Power, and Special, and there are 3 levels of improvement available for each area. The areas can be improved upon independently from each other, but each area can only be improved in order. Furthermore, the loot required for Special upgrades is not available in Green Circle courses, so at least one Speed or Power upgrade is required to hunt in Blue Square courses first.
Once all upgrades have been made, any combination of 8 Toboggan Planks, Toboggan Steel, Tobboggan Twine, or Toboggan Wax can be combined to create 1 Toboggan Nitro.

Hazards and Bonuses
Hunters will encounter Hazards and Bonuses when racing their toboggan on the various courses. Both can be affected by upgrading the toboggan.
On a hunt, the speed of the toboggan will move the Hunter forward that many meters and all bonuses and penalties encountered during that hunt will then be applied and set the speed available for the next hunt.
Hazards
Hunters will encounter Hazards which reduce speed if not defended against. Certain upgrades will increase the chance that Hunters will successfully defend against Hazards.
A Failure to Catch or a Failure to Attract will reduce the toboggan speed by 2.

Course Rivals and the Stuck Snowball Mouse
The Course Rival and Stuck Snowball mice are not caught in the usual way. A catch is recorded as a Bonus Hunt and they do not consume cheese or charms when encountered.
If a Hunter wins against a Course Rival, a catch is recorded as a Bonus Hunt.
If a Hunter loses to a Course Rival, no encounter with the mouse occurs and, therefore, a miss is not recorded on the Hunter's stats.
The Stuck Snowball Mouse may be encountered as a Bonus while on all courses except the Green Circle. A catch is recorded as a Bonus Hunt.
The Stuck Snowball Mouse drops Toboggan Nitro and Arctic Asiago Cheese with each hunt. Beginning with the 6th hunt, it will also drop a Satchel of Gold which increases in value with every 5th hunt. Beginning with the 11th hunt, it will also drop Winter Charms and SUPER|brie+.
