Few places in the world can be as good as Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. This UNESCO World Heritage site has snow-capped mountains and, in its valleys, deep blue lakes. Grizzly bears and mountain lions live in its forests. It is different from most other World Heritage sites due to its location in two countries. This land actually combines two large national parks-Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta, Canada, and Glacier National Park in Montana, United States.

Back in 1931, local Rotary Club members had the idea of uniting the two parks. The Rotarians believed the area could be better protected and enjoyed as one, and their governments agreed. Then, in 1995, UNESCO agreed as well, and the two parks became a single World Heritage site.

For visitors, Waterton-Glacier Park offers many wonderful things to see and do. Have a picnic or go for a hike- or have a picnic on your hike-and be ready to take lots of pictures. On the lakes, take a boat tour, go fishing or simply go for a swim.

Whatever activities you choose, amazing views will surround you. For example, a road tour anywhere in the park will pass through wonderful scenery. Don’t miss the drive westward along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. You will never forget the great views.

A number of small towns lie within Waterton-Glacier Park or close to it. In these places, you can get a bite to eat, buy gifts or find a place to stay. One must-see is the town of Waterton and Prince of Wales Hotel. Camping in the park is a very popular activity. Many campsites are available on a first come, first served basis while some need to be reserved. If you camp, be sure to keep food locked away at night. Otherwise, you may have an unwanted visit from a bear.

Words cannot describe beautiful Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. You have to see it for yourself！

So you’re looking to ski at one of the best? We’ve done the hard work for you.

Breckenridge is an extremely popular ski destination. It’s undoubtedly an awesome mountain to ride, but it can also get discouragingly crowded. This isn’t surprising given all the things Breckenridge has going for it: affordable lodging(借宿), an abundance of slopes and North America’s highest lift. The town atmosphere is fun and relaxing, plus there are a ton of shopping, dining, and drinking options to choose from. With so much to offer, Breckenridge makes for a great ski resort that suits all budgets.

Aspen is the ultimate ski destination for the rich and has evolved into four separate ski areas: Aspen, Snowmass, Buttermilk, and Aspen Highlands. They’ re all linked by a shuttle system, accessible with a single ticket, and gathered around one of the greatest ski towns in the world. Aspen is truly the king of après-ski(滑雪后的社交娱乐)with endless dining and nightlife options! It’s also one of the few ski resorts in Colorado where you won’t be affected by altitude sickness. For all the appeal that brings celebrities here, Aspen does come at a price.

Jackson Hole is infamous for its extreme terrain(地形)and steeps with the most continuous vertical in the US. Although it has the reputation of an expert’s paradise, recent improvements have made intermediate terrain easier to access. On the other side, Jackson Hole is not ideal for first-timers and kids due to the lack of beginner terrain. Crowds can also be an issue. If you’ re looking for ski-in/ski-out access, stay in Teton Village which has a handful of bars; if not, the town of Jacks.

I'm a travel addict. I think it is very exciting to go to new places, experience different situations and see unfamiliar things. Here's what I have come up with about why travel is so fascinating.

To start with, whether we know it or not, every day is filled with anxiety about things that we don't need to worry about in the first place. Going to new places is a chance to escape from our everyday worries. For example, after a whole day at work, I am often physically and mentally exhausted and start to worry about things. However, the moment I get on the train or bus to my next destination. I forget all my tiredness and worries.

Next is one of the most basic concepts in travel: movement. I always take along books to read on my train trips, but in the end, only about five pages or so ever get read, because 1 just stare out of the window at the things whooshing by. Just the ability to move is pleasing. Movement also means that we are going to new places and seeing new things. But why is that important? Because experiencing new situations, people and ideas could help us to learn about new things and grow, especially when we don't have the burden of everyday worries. I have never gone on a trip and come back as the same person; I have always changed and grown through travel.

So take every type of trip you can, at every chance you get, and you will not only experience more of the world, but will become a happier person with a richer set of experiences.
