It starts on the inside…

…like most adventure vacations do.

It starts with the excitement of a new land. Of a lake too blue to be true, a thundering desert waterfall, a 2,000-year-old, 200-foot tall tree.

It starts with the delight of a warm handshake. With a surprise mountaintop parfait, a hot stone massage, Shakespeare under the stars.

It starts with the thrill of putting the "adventure" in adventure travel. Of reeling in your first trout on the fly, tackling a class IV rapid, reaching your next hold.

And then, slowly, it creeps outward.

Your heart races. Your adrenaline surges. You break a sweat.

You smile, knowing the view from the top isn't too good to be true. Knowing you've earned your parfait. Knowing you'll always have a friend in Supai.

You breathe. You laugh. You're full of life, energy.

You are inspired.
