Austin-Lehman's New Trips for 2013

ADVENTURE VACATIONS (multisport)

NEW- Oregon | Crater Lake> From Shakespeare under the stars to stunning overlooks: Oregon sets the stage! There's a legend in Oregon that when the first Crater Lake visitors with color cameras took their photos to be developed, they were reimbursed for what Kodak assumed was an error in the printing process. Little did Kodak know, the impossibly bright blue hue of Oregon's Crater Lake was, in fact, real.

NEW- Arizona | Prescott, Sedona and Flagstaff> What better way to experience the mesas, buttes and cliffs of the Colorado Plateau, Sedona’s sweeping red rock country and the craters of Flagstaff than on two wheels, enveloped in fresh air and spectacular Arizona scenery?
