Epic, Life Changing Experiences your Family will Never Forget

The time has come ...

... for a guide book like this ...

... that helps families connect with one another, connect to nature, and all the while being active and adventurous.

The adventures in Fifty Classic Adventures range from unforgettable whitewater rafting journeys to climbing challenges scrambling up mountain peaks.  From easy hut hiking to challenging slot canyon descents.  From super-classic adventures in national parks to remote, isolated journeys in places you’ve never heard of.  From guided multi-day trips to do-it-yourself epics.

There are enough adventures, planning exercises and how-to descriptions to get any motivated family outside.  Many of these adventures have changed lives forever, either by instilling a life-long love of adventure, forging an enduring relationship with nature or even just creating an awareness of a previous unknown part of the country. Each of the fifty classics has a "runner-up" adventure, so Fifty Classic Adventures actually contains approximately 100 trip ideas.
