America's Best Adventures
In 2004, National Geographic Adventure put out a list of the top 100 outdoor expeditions in the United States. Here's the top 10:
1. Rafting the Colorado River, Grand Canyon, Arizona
2. Sea Kayaking the Na Pali Coast, Kauai, Hawaii
3. DogSledding in the Brooks Range, Alaska
4. Mountain Biking Kokopelli's Trail, Colorado and Utah
5. Hiking the Narrows, Zion National Park, Utah
6. Skiing Corbet's Couloir, Jackson Hole, Wyoming
7. Climbing the El Capitan, Yosemite
8. Hiking the Presidential Range Traverse, New Hampshire
9. Competing in the "Beast" Adventure Race, Alaska Range
10. Diving Bonne Terre Mine, Bonne Terre, Missouri
Thus far, I can only scratch off one of the items of the list, hiking the Narrows of Zion NP (#5). So much to do, so little time!
