TORONTO — Thereʻs a lucky winner in the Travel Nevada Trailblazers contest.
Brittany Uskoski
Brittany Uskoski, a travel advisor with BCD Travel in Winnipeg, has won an unforgettable road trip adventure to discover the wonders of the Silver State firsthand.
Travel Nevada invited Canadian travel advisors to take part in the contest, hosted by Travelweek, through the month of April. Participants who completed all four components of the contest, including completing the Travel Nevada Trailblazers Certification program, gained invaluable knowledge about Nevada’s unique attractions. They were also entered for a chance to win an exclusive fam trip. The winner was selected from those that completed all components.
As the grand prize winner from Canada, Uskoski will be joining travel advisors from other markets May 26-31 to explore Northern Nevada.
“I love the open highway when it seems like it’s only you and the road in the world, and itʻs all yours to explore!” says Uskoski.
Nevada is known as the ‘Road Trip Capital of the U.S.’, offering everything from the ‘Cowboy Corridor’ along I-80, to ‘Death Valley Rally’, ‘Rubies Route’ and ‘The Loneliest Road in America.ʻ
Uskoski says The Loneliest Road might be her favourite, “but there are about nine more very close second favourites right behind it.”
She adds: “On one road, to be able to explore historical innovations like the charcoal ovens, ancient old cave paintings and petroglyphs, old-time saloons and road houses, and to ATV in sand dunes and relax in hot springs – all with the most breathtaking views of the horizon and stars without the noise and light pollution that we’ve all gotten so accustomed to – seems unbelievable. But also like something that my soul needs to experience.”
Nevada is a road trip enthusiast’s dream, boasting …
- Vast Open Spaces: Over 60 million acres of public lands and more than 3,400 miles of scenic byways and highways.
- Ghost Town Adventures: Explore over 600+ fascinating ghost towns, each with its own unique history.
- Artistic Wonders: Discover larger-than-life art exhibits and one-of-a-kind attractions scattered throughout the state.
- Stargazing Paradise: Experience some of the best stargazing and darkest skies in North America.
