I have spent 98% of my life in Wisconsin and I only saw one adventure on the list from WI. Most of Wisconsin is an adventure of it's own

Flatboating down the Ohio River in historical style is what I recommend. It is like going back in time because of living without electricity and cooking over a fire for an extended period and dressing in fashions of 200 years ago and sleeping on deck under the stars and keeping to a travel schedule that gets you to your chosen destinatin on time, no matter the weather and other river traffic. Besides, the look on some of the visitors' faces is worth it all. Make friends at every stop!

in 2000, you ranked the top 100 adventures, and listed hiking the Zion Narrows as #5. How did this not even make your 2009 top 50??? (by the way, the narrows is not even the best hike in Zion, the Subway has much more variation, and the actual subway section of the hike is truly mind-boggling).

I am looking for an easy bike riding trip that was featured in your mag last year in Virginia on an old logging road. The article said you start at one town go about 30 miles mostly on a slight downgrade and spend the night in some charming town and then ride about twenty five miles the next day, same direction , and catch a ride with your bikes back to your car.
Do you have any clue about the name of the town where we start the bike ride?

Take the narrow gage train that travels from Durango to Silverton, CO and get dropped off halfway to backpack the Chicago Basin in the San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado. Then have the train pick you up on its return trip back to Durango.

Hike the narrows in Zion National Park, Utah. Most of the trail is in the river itself.

Raft the Salmon! The hiking trails are beautiful as well, but nothing beats getting in a raft and riding those great rapids.

Hike to havasu falls at the bottom of the grand canyon. Experience shangrila in the midst of the desert. Immerse yourself in warm, turquoise waters fed by rushing waterfalls towering down from the red cliffs.

Crossing the half-mile stretch of Pacific Ocean between Cape Alava in Washington State to Ozette Island, the westernmost point of land in the lower US 48 states. It's a wildlife refuge island.
