Vacation Ideas I hope to Visit
Outside magazine has had some interesting ideas for vacations and trips that have me excited to actually take a vacation where I leave work behind for awhile. I'm putting this up so I don't forget where I can find the articles.
I greatly enjoyed my first visit to Zion National Park and want to go back - Outside's May 2009 issue has a tip on how to avoid most of the tourists although a subsequent letter to the editor challenged whether or not this was good advice - they suggested heading for camp 5 or 6.
There was also a tip for Glacier National Park that I hope to check out at some point with Michelle.
In a more recent issue (July 2009), they offer what sounds like a great road-trip in Oregon but the California one is also intruiging. The one that really caught my interest is in the Dakotas, offering a Teddy Roosevelt National Park (the least visited National Park) as its destination and I have long wanted to get out there.

Glacier
Just got back from 5 days in Glacier. It was fabulous if a bit on the wet side. Even the very popular backcountry areas aren't that packed. The hike into Lake Elizabeth is nice. Lake Helen, just 4.5 miles above Elizabeth with only 2 campsites, was unbelievable.
I highly recommend it when you get the chance.
