Does anybody else have that Dream Destination...the place you dream of someday being able to explore? Living back in Illinois...my dream destination was Arizona...so now that I live here...I'd have to say that if I could go to one "dream" place, it would have to be New Zealand.
Anybody else have a dream destination? _________________ -Colin

I hadn't heard about it. I remember seeing an episode of Trailside on the Milford Track, a hike in New Zealand...stunning!
I've met a few adventure racers who've either lived there or visited there, and they say there is no place like it on earth. _________________ -Colin

I have a high interest in the wind river range in Wyoming. Particularly an area called Cirque of the Towers.
New Zealand is deffanatly one that i would love to go, but I really dont think I'll ever make it there. Wyoming is deffinatly more realistic. _________________ Mountains are there to be climbed!

Australia and New Zealand. Been to Scotland, wanted to go to the Highlands but didn't make it. Southern Scotland looks a lot like Wisconsin, I would love to see the rest of it! _________________ Steve |

Daddee, maybe a better question would be where do you NOT want to go. _________________ Mountains are there to be climbed!
