JACKSON, Wyo. - National Geographic Adventure magazine called it the No. 1 trek in the country in its July 2007 issue. That would be the Teton Crest Trail in Grand Teton National Park.
After reading the article, my wife, Marilyn, thought we should give it a try. Now, we hadn't done any backpacking so we took a short trip to try it out, because this trip is not an easy trek. It works its way around the Teton Range for 39 miles, takes at least four nights and goes from about 6,000 feet to a high point of over 11,000 feet. However, if you're an avid backpacker and want to enjoy some of the best mountain scenery anywhere, it would be a trip of a lifetime.

Dan Koeppel's article deemed Pittsburgh "revived" and called it a place where "residents can be serious both about their careers and their outdoors.

The National Geographic Society long has sought to bring the world home to readers on the pages of its magazine. Now it is doing so with a bed, an armoire and nearly 2,500 other items - all part of the society's first-ever home furniture and furnishings collection.
The enterprise is not an entirely new venture for the institution; the society already has an online catalog featuring an ethnic mix of accessories and handicrafts. The difference is the approach.
