Traveling
to the Mountains
|
A mountain vacation can be a great location any time of year. The mountains
are known for their skiing in the winter but they can offer so much
more to travelers the other three seasons. The mountains are obviously
a great vacation destination for those who enjoy winter sports but even
those who do not enjoy winter sports may still find that the mountains
are a great place to spend your vacation. The mountains are a beautiful
place to spend your vacation for any occasion and during any season.
In fact you may find that traveling to the mountains during the spring,
summer or fall can be much more affordable and just as enjoyable as
traveling to the mountains in the winter.
The appeal of mountain destinations in the winter is obvious. Snow sports
such as skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing attract tourists in large
quantities. Hotels have very little trouble keeping their occupancy
rates high and airlines routinely fly full airplanes to these destinations.
The abundance of travelers flocking to these destinations gives the
hotels and airlines the luxury of raising their prices during this season.
These price hikes can make traveling to the mountains in the winter
season a very expensive vacation.
Most popular vacation destinations have their peak seasons and their
off seasons. Prices for lodging and even airfares to these locations
during the peak season can skyrocket. However, traveling to these locations
during the off seasons can result in a tremendous price reduction. This
is because hotel owners and airlines recognize that these particular
locations are not as popular during the off season and they are willing
to reduce the prices rather than have empty rooms in their hotel and
empty seats on their flights. If you are willing to take advantage of
these specials you may find that you are able to afford a mountain vacation.
Snow sports aren’t the only reason to travel to the mountains. The other
three seasons of the year offer excellent opportunities to enjoy the
mountains. As the melts in the fall, it is the perfect time to take
advantage of the short white water rafting season. The summer and fall
are perfect for hiking, camping and mountain biking in the mountains
and the fall offers the opportunity to enjoy the leaves changing colors.
With all of these other fabulous mountain activities available you may
find that you enjoy traveling to the mountains more in the other seasons
than you do in the winter. In fact you may decide that the winter somewhat
limits your activities in the mountains.
If you enjoy the mountains in the winter and have always traveled there
to enjoy winter sports you may be missing out on a variety of other
exciting mountain activities. White water rafting, hiking, camping and
mountain biking are just a few of the many activities that you can participate
in during your mountain vacation. You may also find that a vacation
in the mountains during the spring, summer or fall seasons is much more
affordable than a winter, mountain vacation.

How
I get free airline tickets & travel on a shoestring
budget...

Myth:
Cheapest fares are always found online.
Truth:
Wrong. Many of the wholesale airline contracts are prohibited
from being marketed on a website. If you're only searching Expedia,
Orbitz, Travelocity and the like, you're not seeing all the
really discounted fares that are available.
Myth:
Buying direct from the airlines is good.
Truth:
Wrong again. You just eliminated the possibility of buying a
consolidator airfare, which is almost always cheaper than anything
the airlines offer, and, the cheapest airfare are sold
only by travel agencies.
Myth:
The airlines sell off unsold seats cheap at the last minute.
Truth:
This myth can cost you big time or the cancellation of your
plans if you're not willing to pay the exorbitant price the
airlines want to extort from you. Believing this myth proves
you have no clue about the airlines' distribution system.
