Outside Magazine's Urban Adventure: Chicago

Chicago is wired for outdoor fun: paddle the Chicago River; find out how to rent boats—paddle, sail, or sailboard—get lessons, and then explore Lake Michigan; get a handle on where to mountain bike the city's parks for after-work joyrides; learn where to go for a long weekend of serious trail riding. From river canoe camping to whitewater runs to scuba diving over Lake Michigan's shipwrecks, Urban Adventure Chicago takes you there and back.
