Equinox Expeditions-Alaska-Vegetarian Friendly ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Are you looking for an exhilarating vacation that offers physical challenge, yet provides you with opportunities for reflection and solitude, one that offers high adventure off the beaten path, with enthusiastic guides who have a passion for wilderness? Travel with our top-notch naturalists, in intimate groups of like-minded adventurers, to unique mountains, valleys, rivers, canyons and coastal fjords where few have trodden -- where discovery yet awaits.
For more than 25 years, we have roamed Alaska's wilds by raft, kayak, canoe, or afoot -- from the glacial fjords of Southeast Alaska to the sweeping tundra and mountain vistas of the Brooks Range and out to the Aleutian Islands, seeking out the unusual and the magnificent. We offer our trips in the belief that the earth's wild places offer a path for balancing the hectic pace of modern life with simplicity and a personal connection with the land, water, and sky.
Entering the land on its own terms -- accepting the rhythms of wind and weather, we encounter natural ecosystems uninterrupted by human endeavor. Experience the diverse and rich flora and fauna of this great land. Caribou and grizzlies move across wildflower-studded tundra. Whales feed in blue waters teeming with fish. Coyotes move boldly at dusk through desert canyons. Through quiet awareness, we encounter the wondrous splendor of our finest wildlands.
Join one of our backpacking, river rafting, canoeing, sea kayaking, or photography hiking basecamp trips on your own path of discovery, as we experience the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Gates of the Arctic, Wrangell- St. Elias, Kenai Fjords, and Denali National Parks, Tongass National Forest, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, the Grand Canyon, and Alaska's wildest rivers!

Stanford Inn By The Sea-Mendicino California-Vegetarian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Stanford Inn embodies the very best of the rugged Mendocino Coast. Rather than an inn with gardens, ours is a small working certified organic garden and farm with an inn.
Yet, in the tradition of the finest inn keeping we offer superior accommodations. You feel at home.

Red Mountain Spa-Utah-Vegetarian Friendly ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For years guests have been finding their answers at this unique health resort located in southwestern Utah. The answers come with guests participation in the learning center and classes on cooking, grocery shopping, mind-body awareness, time and stress management and disease prevention.
This inspirational setting and the extensive wellness programs create an experience that truly moves our guests to commit to better self-care and leading a balanced life,
You can learn to make healthy choices daily as you select from the nutritious menu and workout on cardiovascular and weight-training equipment, swim in refreshing pools, attend water and step aerobics classes, participate in sessions of "Spinning"® on Schwinn equipment and relax in soothing whirlpools. But for most, the true life change comes as guests put on their hiking shoes and venture up the trails through Snow Canyon State Park (named for its early settlers, not for the "white stuff"). Among the vertical towers of rust-red sandstone, the pink weathered mounds of slickrock, and the scattered boulders of ancient black lava, you can "get out and move," and discover that your health and well-being are not attached to the numbers they you on a scale every morning but to their ability to walk from one point to another, their desire to climb to the top of a ridge, their joy in running a distance they've never reached before For more than two decades the Red Mountain Resort & Spa has nestled at the foot of the red sandstone towers near the entrance to Snow Canyon State Park (named for its early settlers, not for the "white stuff").The facility sits at the mouth of Snow Canyon's red sandstone cliffs, beneath the towering peaks of 10,000-ft Pine Valley Mountain.
This inspirational setting and the extensive wellness programs create an experience that truly moves our guests to commit to better self-care and leading a balanced life.
