How to Hike the Oregon Coast Trail
  Words and Photos by Laura Lancaster      “I knew you were coming.”   I had been dreading this stretch of the Oregon Coast Trail that ran between Manzanita and Tillamook since we started weekend thru-hiking (or section-hiking) it in chunks back in 2017. Heading south from Tillamook, the OCT follows Highway 101—the main artery for the Oregon Coast—for over 10 miles...

Glacier Peak—Skiing Washington’s Most Remote Volcano
  Words Photos by William Woodward      Volcano skiing is a well-honored pastime in Washington. While our most famous volcanoes live in plain sight, like Mt. Rainier and Mt. Baker, Glacier Peak often remains hidden but for a few high points on public roads. The fifth volcano highest in the state, Glacier is second only to Mt. Rainier in climbing prominence,...
Packrafting the Flathead River in Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness
  Packrafting opened up a world of adventure for me. Being from the desert, the idea of hauling a raft deep into the wilderness was fairly novel. But when photographer Jacob Moon and his wife Natasha invited me to go packrafting on the South Fork of the Flathead, one of the world’s premier rivers, I couldn’t say no.      Photo by...

From Sea to Source: Misadventures & Camping on the Hudson River
  In August of 2019, my friend Kirk and I fulfilled a childhood dream, paddling the Hudson River from source to sea.

We would go paddling, swimming, cliff jumping, hiking and occasionally jump trains when they...
Himalayas: Preparing for and Hiking at High Altitude
  I’ve joined friends and photographers, Dan and Janine Patitucci for a ten-day Himalayan adventure trek across the Gangotri Glacier organized by Ruck Sack Tours. This glacier is one of the main sources of the Ganges River, and one of the largest in the Himalaya. However, it is rapidly receding. We scramble over rock and rubble where ice once stretched to...
Mountain Running in the Sierra Nevada
  One of the best parts of mountain running is when you get to walk. I’m not calling mountain running a gentle stroll, but generally, you’re not full-on, maxed-out sprinting hour after hour up an enormous rock pile. The running part is great, but the main draw is that rock pile and the ones around it. Just being, and moving, in...

How to pace your run like a pro for maximum performance
  Anyone who's raced hard has felt it – the moment that elephant jumps on your back and your speed begins to ebb away.   Your breathing becomes laboured; limbs get heavy and start to burn; and the only way to temper the pain is to ease off and watch as other competitors disappear over the horizon, never to be seen again....

Recovery sessions: what are they, how to do them and what are their benefits?
  A recovery session, as the name implies, should enhance or facilitate recovery. In doing so, it should not add any additional fatigue. But many people don't stick to these simple rules, instead overdoing it and adding on pointless mileage.   As you'll discover, we're just focusing on bike sessions here. So here's the how and why you should do a recovery...
How to improve your run efficiency
  Coaches often quote the statistic that top distance runners run at around 180 steps per min. However, on its own, this information tells us nothing.
