Turns out you don't need an ocean to surf. We spent the day carving down the Killpecker Sand Dunes near Rock Springs, the second largest active sand dune field in the world, with dunes reaching 100 feet tall.

Rent/buy a board or sled at the Rock Springs Visitor Center and bring a high clearance vehicle, and pack extra water since cell service is spotty out there. Fee free, all ages welcome, and honestly one of our favorite family adventures this year.

I've explored a lot of Mexico with my family, and Riviera Maya keeps proving itself as one of the best regions in the country for family travel. My latest deep dive covers Sandos Caracol, a resort where monkeys visited my balcony daily, ruins sit tucked behind pool towels, and seven cenotes make up for a rough seagrass season on the beach.

Full review, wildlife sightings, and what to know before you book, linked below.

Did not expect Vail to actually make skiing cheaper for teenagers, but here we are.

Epic Pass just made this a lot easier for families with teens.

Teens ages 13 to 17 and young adults 18 to 30 now pay 20% LESS for a full Epic Pass or Epic Local Pass (compared to the adult rate).

Prices are set to climb again before sales close in November. I broke down every tier, what it actually covers, and whether the Day Pass or a season pass makes more sense for your crew.

Planning a family ski trip this winter? Here is how the Epic Pass works, what it costs for teens and young adults, and why buying now beats paying at the lift window.

Skip the usual tourist stops. OKC has some seriously quirky spots your teens will actually want to photograph, like the immersive art installations at Factory Obscura (housed in a building featuring murals commissioned by the Flaming Lips' lead singer ) and 300+ skeletons at the Museum of Osteology. Weird, wonderful, and very teen-approved.
