Bucket List

Our travels have always included a healthy dose of outdoor adventure. You might say it's the glue that binds our trips together. One of my earliest travel memories is a family trip where I learned to ski. I was six years old and had no idea how profound an affect our weekend getaway would have on my life. It was the beginning of a life long love affair with skiing, mountains, and snow, which no doubt gave birth to many other pursuits.

These days, our bucket list is choked with adventures big and small. We try to integrate a little of everything into our time on the road. Skiing, trail running, climbing, kiteboarding, kayaking, sailing, diving... Some are simple day trips like hiking Argentina's sublime Laguna de Los Tres. Others fall into the Epic Journeys category like biking from London to Sydney or kayaking from Seattle to Alaska.

What follows is a short list of 50 essential outdoor adventures. Generally, this list leans towards shorter trips like hiking the 5-day 'W' in Torres del Paine. Bucket list items worthy of a stand alone trip, which we often integrate into longer journeys.

As noted on other lists, bucket list items we've completed are marked with a ~~strikethrough~~. In some cases, we've written a blog post that discusses a bucket list item in greater detail and provides useful planning information and links.
