11 Thrilling Things Every Active Woman Should Try to Do in Her Lifetime We made you a bucket list so you didn’t have to. Courtesy of Aspen Snowmass

In the May issue of Women's Health, we gave you 50 ideas for how to get a fresh perspective on fitness. But because you can never have enough excuses to get outside, we found 11 more items that belong on every active lady's bucket list.

1. Run a bridge. There's nothing like a run that literally lifts you off the ground. While they may seem cliché and obvious, Brooklyn Bridge and Golden Gate are two that should be on your to-run list.

2. Do a sun salutation on top of a mountain. Aspen Mountain in the Rockies is pretty much the most idyllic location possible for Hatha yoga (that's it in the main photo above). Classes are offered Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 10:30 a.m. from June to August (free with the purchase of a gondola foot passenger ticket).

3. Two words: trapeze school. Find them in New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, Los Angeles, and Chicago, and prepare to channel your inner circus performer.

4. Kayak the Maine Island Trail in Portland. The 375-mile waterway connects more than 200 islands, making it one of the best spots for kayaking on the East Coast.

5. Bet you didn't know you could go white water rafting through the Grand Canyon (it gives you a unique perspective of this natural wonder). Charlotte, North Carolina, home to the U.S. National Whitewater Center, is another perfect rafting option for adrenaline junkies (check out its intense rodeo rafting trips).

6. Hike through the canyons, waterfalls, and sandstone bluffs at Illinois’s hidden gem, Starved Rock State Park. Located on the south bank of the Illinois River, it's a scenic wonderland less than 100 miles from Chicago.

7. Take in a full moon. It's one of the best times to hike California's Mt. Shasta, a 14,179-foot-tall active volcano—or to participate in a yoga retreat at White Sands National Monument in New Mexico.

8. Go dog sledding on a glacier with Alpine Air Alaska. The excursion comes complete with a helicopter ride onto Punch Bowl Glacier in the Chugach Mountains and a team of Huskies waiting to transport you through one of the most beautiful places on Earth.

9. You don't have to go to a tropical destination to try your hand at SUP. Practice the water sport in an urban setting with Charles River Canoe & Kayak in Boston.

10. There's no better way to see the vineyard-laced Sonoma County than on horseback. Schedule a sunset ride to make the experience even more memorable.

11. Get up close and personal with various cave formations on a two- or four-hour wild cave tour. What makes a cave "wild"? No handrails, paved paths, or lights—so there will defintiely be crawling and climbing involved. Georgia Girl Guides offer tours in Cloudland Canyon State Park and Pigeon Mountain Wildlife Management Area.
