  When summer fades to fall, the leaves develop a vitality of their own. For an autumn birthday trip, head to the northeast to take in the gorgeous sight of New England's brilliantly colored foliage.

Make sure to take pictures of the brilliant reds, bold oranges and blazing yellows that fill the trees.

  For a wintertime birthday adventure, outdoor lovers can hit the slopes. A trip to Colorado or Vermont in the winter provides a cold yet exciting way to spend a birthday. Spend the day skiing or snowboarding, while taking in the awe-inspiring views from the top of the mountain. Those who don't ski can participate in other winter activities, such as skating or snow-shoeing, or can relax in the lodge. Warm up with a delicious dinner and hot chocolate.
