All of them! But a Bucket List trip we hope to take soon is to explore some of the Canadian National Parks, including Banff and Jasper. One of my favorite parks is Glacier, near by, so I know exploring a little more north will be equally beautiful hiking and lakes. Another one outside of the US, is Kruger National Park, located in South Africa. I’d love to see the wild life in a safari type environment and take in the beauty and vastly different landscape.

I have two favorites. The first one is getting drawn in the lottery for The Wave, located outside of Page, AZ. Navigating without trail to a natural wonder was a core memory. Pictures don’t do justice at how unbelievably beautiful such a small area of land could be. Also, taking a ferry to The Channel Islands and then backpacking through the mountains there was an absolute favorite. We set up our tent on a bluff by the ocean while watching Blue Whales breach the water at sunset.

My husband and I have two daughters who have become just as much of outdoor enthusiasts as us. They love to hike, camp, fish, and always up for an adventure. Winning this money would give us the opportunity to take more vacations and I think we would use the money to put towards a camper that we could start traveling together in. We would continue making memories that they can carry with them forever.
