>17. ADRENALINE TRAVELERS  
> by Karen Minich, Council Travel  
>  
>For some adventurous travelers, the notion of languishing on a sunny  
>beach for days on end is akin to torture. There are fanatics who  
>don't just ski the slopes; they actually cut a path down an untamed  
>mountainside for the charge and challenge of it. They're not just  
>adventure seekers, they're adrenaline travelers. And for them, winter  
>is the prime time to "take a flying leap" on a weekend getaway.

>reflected holiday glow. Too bad the crowds were the worst we'd ever

>city - during the holidays. Just be prepared that the city lights may  
>not jibe with your memories or expectations.
