Adventures are about the thrilling experiences, challenges and learning opportunities. Pictures recall special moments and help to tell stories but are no replacement for the experience of bagging a 14,000 foot mountain peak, climbing a glacier roped to your teammates, rafting the chilly waters of the Royal Gorge, Aichilik River, or South Fork of the Flathead or surfing the dangerous coral reefs off Hawaii's coast. These pictures are memories of great times spent in the outdoors.
