03 Ice Climbing
AVENUE OF THE VOLCANOES, ECUADOR
Home to some of the largest, most ethereal-looking glaciers in the world, Ecuador's national parks are known for their vast array of treks and climbing routes. Practice your alpine climbing technique in one of the many crevasses, but beware of avalanches and dangerous active glaciers.
01 Heli-skiing
CHUGACH RANGE, ALASKA
There are no set trails in this form of backcountry skiing. After getting dropped off by a helicopter in the fresh powder, you’ll carve your own way down the remote mountainside. Known as one of the most pristine areas in the world for heli-skiing, these sharp-peaked mountains have descents that can reach 4, 000 feet.
02 Bobsledding
UTAH OLYMPIC PARK, UTAH
Now the world’s best athletes aren’t the only ones who get to experience an Olympicgrade sliding track. Prepare to reach speeds of up to 70 mph as you ride one at the site of the bobsledding, skeleton and luge events from the 2002 Games.
04 Fat Biking
KOUCHIBOUGUAC NATIONAL PARK, CANADA
Don’t let the change of seasons slow you down. Try a fat bike, an off-roading bicycle that lets you traverse even the gnarliest terrain. Around the world, fat biking trails are being created to keep you riding long into the winter. Kouchibouguac is home to miles of these winding paths that weave through the beautiful scenery of the Acadian forest.
