Man, looks rad - albeit freezing - in the winter! I came here in the middle of the summer and swimming in the pool was super refreshing, can't imagine how chilly it would be in any other season. It's a great hike, too!

I love this hike! Most of my time spent in this area is skiing so it's awesome to check it out on a hot summer day.

I've been hiking to Cecret Lake since I was a kid, one of the best hikes around for a quick, family friendly hike.

I drive by this monster on the way up the canyon to ski and everytime get stoked to someday try ice climbing. A few friends have done it and say it's a blast.

If the waves are even decent, this is a pretty unbeatable camp/surfing spot.

I've hiked and climbed around here - the campsites look great, one of these days I'll get a reservation!

Great day hike with epic views of the gorge. Hit up Hood River after for grub - there are tons of options but Solstice Wood Fire Pizza is one of my favorites for nice but casual atmosphere, great pizza, beer, and wine choices. For a classier dinner - if that's your thing - hit up Celilo. Bingen, WA is also home to Killer Burger which is epic.

this is a serious hidden gem in SF! not too many people are aware that there is a full on forest in the city. the staircase on the west side of the preserve is a great way to jump start your heart rate for a nice trail run to the top of mt. sutro. still haven't busted out the MTB on these trails but definitely will sometime.

One of Zion's most popular (and crowded) hikes and for good reason. The view up here is pretty epic. If you aren't into crowds or heat...bust ou the headlamps and time your trip for a full moon. You'll have the place to yourself and catch a view few others have seen.

Utah has some incredible canyoneering and this is one of the most spectacular options. The route ranges from squeezing through tight quarters, swimming in deep pools, rappelling over down boulders and hiking through the river surrounded by massive sandstone cliff walls. Summer is the time to go as the water will be warmer (spring and fall require wet suits). The subway brings out the explorer in you as you may have to try a few different options before finding the corrent entrance to the canyon. Make sure you do plenty of research and know as best you can where you're meant to go. Once you hike around the gulch before the canyon you'll have to keep a sharp eye out for the entrance and probably do some trial and error. If it seems like a really sketchy entrance into the canyon, back track and push forward looking for cairns and a trail heading up a mild hill. This will lead to a rocky, steep (but totally manageable) trail heading down to the canyone floor and towards the first obstacle - a large boulder that you will need to rappell. Always rappell if there is the option - many drops look like they are jumpable, and they may be, but many have tested their limits jumping down boulders and gotten injured. As far as gear goes, bring a lighter canyoneering rope rather than a climbing rope - it will be lighter and soak up less water. Everyone should have a harness, rappell device, locking carabiner and bring at least one form of an anchor so that whoever is leading and setting up can tie in while getting the others ready. I'd also advise to take it slow once you finish the rappells and are walking through the actual "subway" section. Sit down for lunch on the river or near the red waterfalls and soak it in. You've got a good climb out ahead of you so rest up and enjoy one of the most beautiful places in Utah!
