To understand what makes Gravity Haus different, look no further than its mission statement, “To Enable Modern Adventure for Everyone”. To accomplish that, the company asks three questions: Is it good for you? Is it good for the planet? Is it an amazing experience?

The hotel accomplishes all of that and more with lodging that sets new standards for today’s adventurers. From 60 customized rooms to curated wellness perks, Gravity Haus takes your mountain experience to a higher level. 

Central to that are nine different room choices. These include The Alpinist, The Crashpad, The Gnarnia, The Rambler, The Navigator, The Betty, The Trekker, The Powder Hound, and The Trailblazer. Each features a unique layout and look, letting you pick the accommodations of your dreams. 

We’d go with The Alpinist for its simple yet luxurious design, including a king-size bed, office area, and rustic mountain aesthetic. There’s also Farm to Cup Unravel Coffee, a tech desk, satellite TV, and more. You’ll be looking forward to relaxing after epic times on the hill. 

Beyond that, Gravity Haus caters to every aspect of your stay. To reset and recover, there’s a dry sauna, Japanese-inspired onsen, and soaking tubs. Private lockers let you store your gear with peace of mind. The Cabin Juice Elevated Eatery and Bar serves up fuel for the mountain athlete with locally sourced ingredients and family-style feasts. And with low light and deep wood detailing, the restaurant has a soothing après ambiance.

To top it off, Condé Nast Traveler rated Gravity Haus the #4 hotel in Colorado. That’s some serious kudos.

Camper van vs Class B RV: How to choose which to buy for your outdoor adventures
Class B RV vs Camper Van - who ya got?

If you would love to go on road trips and experience the best national parks, there is no better way to do it and still feel comfortable like you’re at home than camping in an RV. Let’s be honest: You will enjoy sleeping on a cozy bed in an RV with an air conditioner more than in a moist and chilly tent. It’s also easier to prepare your meals in an RV because of the refrigerator, and you don’t have to worry about packing and unpacking your camping bags every night or morning. 

However, the big RVs can be a headache if you're driving through low-hanging bridges or tight spaces. They’re also more expensive to fuel and maintain compared to smaller-size vehicles. Alternatively, you could choose a Class B RV or a camper van if prefer an RV that strikes a balance between rural camping and big-city adventure. But the question is — what’s the difference between a Class B RV and a camper van? And which one should you buy?

This terrifying video proves why ski lift wind holds are a thing
Frozen chairlift in Tignes, Rhone-Alps, France

My favorite chairlift is the FourRunner Quad at Stowe Mountain Resort. Rising more than 2,000 vertical feet over steep pitches and offering a panoramic view of Mountain Mansfield, the lift is an icon of the eastern winter experience. It’s like ascending a rollercoaster.

The FourRunner lift starts loading at 8:00 a.m. In the lead-up, skiers and riders are raring to go, with excited banter and equipment adjustments filling the air. But sometimes, when the clock strikes eight, empty chairs continue up the hill, and resort staff notifies everyone of a “wind hold.” That occurs when winds reach about 40 mph, presenting a safety hazard for occupants.
