I would love to visit the Yukon National Parks like Kluane or Vuntut. I love the thought of exploring the rugged territory in the backyard of my own country. If it is anything like Patagonia I will be hooked for life! I also want to go back to Yosemite. I only had one day there and hiked the Half Dome but I missed so many other great trails.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?My favorite is Haggas Honking Holes in NZ. You enter a cave by abseiling 100 ft down. Then you explore the caving system on foot, rappelling down waterfalls or crawling head first through small crevices in the earth’s surface. The exit is as scary as the entry as you ascend a 75 ft swinging ladder to get out! My 2nd favorite is the sky lodge in Ollayantambo, Peru. You climb up the side of a mountain, overnight in a dome hanging off said mountain then rappel down 7 zip lines to the bottom! Epic!
What would you do with $10,000?I would use the money to write a book that would appeal to women who are interested in learning more about the great outdoors. Perhaps a compilation of short stories taken from my travels abroad to peak their interest and to help remove any fear they have of getting out to explore! Of course I also have to have a celebration party for my awesome voters too!
