If you’re planning a trip to a Rocky Mountain West town, park, or tourist spot, you should know a bit about the destination before you go. At The Outdoor Corps, we feature detailed reviews of popular destinations, providing a guide to easily plan a trip. Whether it’s the best dining, lodging, or “things to do,” we share what you need to know before you embark on your adventure.
In the “Destinations” category, you’ll find reviews that provide a visitor’s guide to a particular destination (e.g., Moab, UT). These reviews go into detail on major attractions, best restaurants and hotels, when to visit, and a whole lot more. Other reviews focus specifically on top hikes or activities in an area. With these details, we hope to help make your planning easier and equip you with the info you need to have a great trip. So, have fun out there and never stop exploring!
