Adventure Lodges Of North America

United States Adventure Lodges

Season 1, Episode 2 of 2

From back-country skiing in Yosemite National Park to pole fishing off a Florida island or dog sledding in northern Minnesota, each of the isolated regions featured in this program offers travelers unique adventure opportunities. After a night at Alaska's historic Winterlake Lodge, a snowy ridge walk offers stunning views of Mount McKinley, the tallest peak in North America. A getaway to a warmer climate leads to the Camelot Lodge on the banks of the Colorado River near Moab, Utah. Traveling a desert trail on camelback leads to ancient Indian tool sites and a glimpse of 1,000-year-old petroglyphs inscribed on a canyon wall. Among other stunning stops is a visit to Tarpon Lodge, located on Pine Island off the southwest Florida coast. The former 1920s fishing camp offers excursions to nearby Cabbage Key for mangrove fishing, nature walks and stellar sunset views from the island's landmark water tower.
