Want a little danger in your travel? That could be a good thing.

Blinding snow whipped into a blizzard at 10,000 feet above sea level in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah as I followed the faint boot trail up a ridge on a quest for fresh powder. Skis were cinched to my back. I was miles from the nearest resort. Despite the cold, the wind and the fact that a fall off a mountain would not end well, I could not have been happier.
