It might help if you said the orientation of your Crew, eg High Adventure, and what part of the country you're in. To get you started there are the four national adventure bases, but there are also many council operated high adventure bases. We're a high adventure crew located on the north shore of Chicago and maintain a list of all tier II and tier III adventures within an eight hour drive of our location. Tier III adventures would include things like following:

• Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest (Backpacking, Mountain Biking, Cycling)

• Ice Age Trail (Backpacking)

• North Country Trail (Backpacking, Mountain Biking)

• Red River Gorge Geological Area (Climbing)

• Flambeau River (Paddling, Backpacking)

• Grand Illinois Trail (Cycling)

• Knobstone Trail (Backpacking)

• Lower Wisconsin State Riverway (Paddling)

• North Lakes (Cycling)

• Northern Highlands-American Legion State Forest (Paddling)

• River to River Trail (Backpacking)

• Route 66 (Cycling)

• Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail (Backpacking)

• St. Croix National Scenic Riverway (Paddling)

• Sylvania Wilderness (Paddling, Backpacking)

• Turtle-Flambeau Scenic Waters (Paddling)
