After I graduated college my Dad and I went on a “coming of age trip.” The destination was Homer, Alaska. We explored by car, foot, water taxi, kayak, hand tram, fatbikes and bar stools. If you are looking for some father-son-bonding try a 12 pack of Alaskan Amber Ale and a views of coastline juxtaposed with mountain peaks and days that don’t seem to end. Trip Sponsor: Topo Designs
