Snake River, Wyoming

Snake River, near Jackson Hole, Wyoming, has an adventure for everyone. You can opt for a relaxing flat-float while taking in the stunning surrounds along the way. Or, go on an adrenaline-packed whitewater experience sure to elicit shrieks of joy. Whichever float you choose, keep your eyes peeled for bald eagles, moose, beavers, and osprey wildlife on riverbanks.

Coastal Highway 1, California

Set out on America’s dream drive along California’s Pacific Coast Highway. This cliff-hung roadway winds 1,000 miles along the state’s Pacific boundary. Throughout the driving journey, thread through breathtaking wild coastal beaches and hidden natural masterpieces. Along the route, visit John Steinbeck’s historic Cannery Row with a stop for beachcombing in Pt. Reyes National Seashore. Next, plan a walk through the Armstrong Redwoods, home to some of the tallest trees in the world.

A private glacier cruise along Prince William Sound takes you up Blackstone Bay. While there, experience the sheer cliff walls, tumbling waterfalls, and tidewater glaciers of Alaska’s southern coast.

Zion Mountain Ranch, Utah

Get back to nature at Zion Mountain Ranch, a country cabin resort at the entrance of Zion National Park. Careful management of the land and healthy sustainable cuisine are at the heart of its mission. Enjoy a range of all-day culinary innovations at The Buffalo Grill with a changing menu reflective of the earth’s harvest.
