The descriptions of each destination urge readers to think more creatively about the opportunities these off-the-beaten-path locales offer: the low-on-light-pollution Grasslands National Park in Saskatchewan, for example, makes for stellar stargazing, whereas Alaska's Dalton Highway gives adventure seekers a route to the Arctic Circle.
