2. BASE jump (legally) over the Snake River
If you thought BASE jumping was reserved for professional thrill seekers, you're wrong -- although this activity is reserved for the very brave. Face your fears and conquer the mind-boggling sport of base jumping in Twin Falls, Idaho.
Book your lesson with Snake River Base Academy.
3. Horseback ride through the Garden of the Gods
Leave those hiking boots at the campground and get to know the Garden of the Gods from the comfort of a saddle. Real cowboys will guide your journey, sharing the stories behind unique rock formations you'll find along the way. You'll feel like you've gone back in time to discover the rocky expanse of Colorado Springs like a true explorer.
Reserve your horse through Academy Riding Stables.
4. Kayak with killer whales
Paddle alongside the famous San Juan Islands orcas with these guided day and multi-day kayak trips. Viewing these massive creatures in their natural habitat is an incredible experience that you'll be telling your friends about for ages.
To get one paddle closer to the whales, book your trip with San Juan Kayak.
5. Swim with great white sharks
Looking for more teeth? Get up close and personal with great white sharks off of California’s Farallon Islands. The Farallon Islands are just 29 miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge, so you'll have easy access to this off-the-path thrill. These tours only run during peak hunting season, so you're guaranteed to see some action.

6. Soar the Longest Zipline in the US
If you are looking for an adventure that will have you soaring above the trees, consider trying out the longest (and one of the highest) zipline in the United States. Located in the Catamount Ski Area in New York and Massachusetts, the Catamount Zip Tour features six ziplines that span over three miles of mountaintop terrain. You'll experience breathtaking views and an adrenaline rush as you zip above the trees at speeds of up to 55+ miles per hour. With experienced guides and state-of-the-art equipment, this adventure is sure to be a highlight of your vacation.
7. Heli-Ski in Alaska
For those seeking an even more extreme adventure, consider heli-skiing in Alaska. With Chugach Powder Guides, you can access some of the most remote and challenging terrain in the world. Take a helicopter to the top of a mountain and ski or snowboard down untouched powder. This experience is not for the faint of heart, but the rewards are worth it. Just remember to bring plenty of oxygen, as the high altitude can be challenging.
8. Hike a 14er
If you are a hiker looking for a challenge, consider hiking a 14er. Colorado has 58 mountains that rise above 14,000 feet, and hiking to the summit of one of these peaks is a rewarding and exhilarating experience. But don't be fooled - hiking a 14er is no easy feat. You'll need to be in good physical shape and prepared for altitude sickness. Make sure to research the mountain you choose and pack plenty of water and snacks.
9. Camp overnight in a Cave
For a unique camping experience, consider camping in a cave. Cumberland Caverns in Tennessee offers overnight camping tours that take you deep into the heart of the cave system. You'll sleep in a large underground chamber and explore the cave with experienced guides. This adventure is not for the claustrophobic, but for those who are up for the challenge, it's an unforgettable experience. Just make sure to bring warm clothing and a sense of adventure.
