The Three Steps To Adventure

By: Tori Shepard + Save to a List


Over-burdened with the recycling, demanding kids, and pesky phone calls? Sounds like what you need is an adventure, and Matt Hunter and Andrew Shandro are here to help. Ideally, your best friend is a professional mountain biker, you don't need your iPhone 5, and you've got a psychedelic, rock n roll playlist ready to go. But regardless, the bottomline is to get out the door – oh, and maybe eat a CLIF Bar while you're at it. You're bound to work up an appetite, after all, following in Hunter and Shandro's footsteps (bike tracks).

And don't forget our own addition to the adventure checklist: Step 4: tell your friends at the Outbound all about it when you're back!

We want to acknowledge and thank the past, present, and future generations of all Native Nations and Indigenous Peoples whose ancestral lands we travel, explore, and play on. Always practice Leave No Trace ethics on your adventures and follow local regulations. Please explore responsibly!

Do you love the outdoors?

Yep, us too. That's why we send you the best local adventures, stories, and expert advice, right to your inbox.
