5 Ideas for Escaping into the Mountains for Valentine's Day



It's that time of the year again.  Luckily, this year, unlike last, I got someone.  Needless to say, she is pretty awesome and maybe more obsessive of the mountains than I am.  Having someone who loves escaping into the mountains as much as I do, makes coming up with plans pretty damn easy.  Here are some ideas if you are trying to find something to do outdoorsy with that special someone or soon-to-be special.

1.  TAKE A HIKE.
No not the phrase "take a hike scum!" but take a hike with your boo.  Do something not as strenuous and just enjoy the company.  And if you are a guy reading this, carry everything.  Let's be honest, it IS her day.  And why not make a lunch for the end of the hike.  So romantic.

2.  GO SKIING/BOARDING. 

If you are in the mountains then hit the slopes.  Nothing says "I love you" like shredding the sickest terrain you can find.  Also, it ain't bad when the girlie gets cold and leans into you to get warm.  Again make a lunch!  Not hard, score points.

3.  GO SLEDDING/TUBING. 

You or your girl/guy not a skier/boarder?  Go sledding or tubing.  Both a lot of fun.  You can get some serious speed on those things.  No one is a pro at it, so no need to show off.  Find a secluded hill, just relax, and enjoy the ride!

4.  GO CLIMBING. 

It is going to be about mid-40s and sunny here in Salt Lake City, so I am going, no WE are going climbing.  Stoked to get out on the rock again since St. George about a week ago.  ALSO, stoked to just get away from everything and get out with my girl.  Yes, I am making a lunch.  Don't you worry!

5.  MAKE A SNOWMAN?  HAVE A SNOWBALL FIGHT? Doesn't last long...


Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
