Adventure Travel Wannabees: Win the Adventure of Your Dreams

Ask ten travelers their definition of adventure travel and you'll get ten different answers. If they've entered the competition for Outside magazine's first annual Adventure Grant, one of them might win a $10,000 endowment. To celebrate its 35th anniversary, the magazine will "help fund a smart, creative, and (perhaps) slightly foolhardy project" that will be featured in an upcoming issue.
The types of far-out ideas, according to the magazine, include sailing a homemade raft down the Hudson River, walking a perfectly straight line across Canada's Prince Edward Island, and paddling a canoe from Portland, Oregon, to Portland, Maine.
To enter, go to Outside Adventure Grant, read the application carefully then create a 500-word essay outlining your idea and explaining why it's so unique. Entry deadline is May 8.

Would You Follow His Footsteps?

He's one of several adventurers on an expedition led by famed mountaineer Conrad Anker, along with photographer Cory Richards. The team's goal was to repeat the historic climb of the 1963 National Geographic-sponsored American Mount Everest Expedition. But, with the lack of snow on the proposed West Ridge route leaving a surface of ancient ice, plans have changed.
You'll learn more about why plans changed and find images and videos of the expedition on National Geographic magazine's "On Everest" blog and in its June iPad edition.
You might get vertigo watching what it's like to climb Mount Everest on videos made by sherpas carrying cameras on their helmets.
