　　At some point along the way over the last 20 years, there has been a subtle (or maybe not so subtle) shift to hyper-specialized outdoor gear. I became acutely aware of this last year when I was in the market for a backcountry ski pack. 　　But, every time I walked into my garage and looked at all the hooks with...

　　Winter in Michigan is gray and cold. It may be true that four out of five Great Lakes prefer Michigan, but they all bring their cloud cover and lake effect storms to bear in what can become a swirling morass of sleet, snow, and lack of vitamin D. Spring doesn’t bring much change except the idea that something should change....

　　I am all about counting ounces when it comes to sleeping bags and hiking boots, but I get a little wary when knife brands start trimming fat off their knives. Sure, there are plenty of reliable knives out there that come in at 3 ounces or under. However, a growing amount of these lightweight knives are only rated for light-duty...

　　Hotdog Hans is an absolute legend. When you see the jeans, the old 80s windbreaker, and that iconic gray flow ripping around on his Volkl skis, sending half pipes and big air, you know it will be a good time. 　　But the folks in Switzerland dont seem immediately excited about the newest visitor to their little village.

　　The big oak tree that stood over the bedroom of Andrew Goldner’s Altadena, California, home always worried him. So when powerful Santa Ana winds battered his house on the night of Monday, January 5, Goldner, a rock climbing coach and video director, dragged his futon into the living room and slept there with his two dogs, just to be safe....

　　Seasonal reading—that’s my boring-but-apt term for enriching the mood and meaning of a certain time of year with the addition of a certain text. Each April, I reach for the “Spring” chapter in Walden. Every July, I take a lap in E.B. White’s “Once More to the Lake.” And in November, when the brown ground freezes and the weatherman predicts...

Halifax, the provinces capital and largest city, is situated on one of the deepest natural harbors in the world that remains ice-free in winter months.

　　Ski patrollers at Arapaho Basin voted on Sunday, Jan. 12, to form a union, joining the organized labor movement sweeping the ski industry. This move follows Park Citys contentious ski patrol strike, which lasted two and a half weeks and caused confusion and disruption at one of the busiest times of the year. Park City patrollers reached an agreement with...

　　My favorite thing in the world may be pulling up to a popular boat ramp at 10:00 a.m. and being the only truck there. Usually, when that happens, I wonder if everyone else knows something I dont, like an impending tornado or a massive fish kill that I somehow missed. But, in the wintertime, empty parking lots are the norm....
