Blue Sky Adventures' seasoned guides and surefooted steeds lead riders across trails that wind up alongside Alexander Creek. After learning to mount ponies and whisper the secret password for "go" in their ears, sojourners set out through the sloping meadows and snow-dusted pine forests. Over the course of an hour, equine caravans trot through the pristine snow, sheltered by the pine boughs that form a canopy overhead, while sharp eyes look for tracks left by elk and moose. Afterward, toasty mugs of hot chocolate stoke belly furnaces. Tours depart Tuesdays–Saturdays at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.; adventurers should arrive 30 minutes before their departure time.

Blue Sky Adventures

Blue Sky Adventures beckons adventure nuts with its 3,300-acre Blue Sky Ranch filled with abundant wildlife, mountain peaks, meadows, and canyons. The outdoor experts offer activities year-round. Summertime days are spent rafting, fly-fishing, horseback riding, biking, and spending warm nights in a yurt. During the winter months, nature lovers can take in the white-blanketed sights on a sleigh ride or dogsled, or try to sneak up on a rare species of snowman in a pair of snowshoes. Other group adventures include archery and a geo-cache scavenger hunt for the mountain’s golden egg.

The Groupon Guide to: Impromptu Holiday Games

With holiday season in full swing, there's no shortage of dinner parties to attend. If your host doesn't own any board games, save the evening by suggesting a game that can be played without gaming equipment:

Bang, Bang, Hear, Hear: Have one person grab a fork, spoon, and knife. After everyone else closes their eyes, the person holding the utensils will start banging one of the three against the dinner table. The first person to correctly guess what the banger is banging wins and gets to leave the game.

Noise Town: Break off into groups of two. Each pair builds a unique city by creating a soundscape using the sounds that come out of their mouths. The team that builds the loudest town gets the grand prize—getting to wait outside until the other teams stop.

My Country, Your Country: One person starts the game by approaching another person and saying "My country." The person has to respond, as quickly as possible, "Your country?" The first person then must say "My country" again, this time faster than the second person said "Your country?" This keeps going until everyone feels compelled to simultaneously shout "The holidays: are these not the finest times of our years?" Then everyone gets to leave.

Should December be called Game-cember?
