Description

  Roomy semi-rectangular bag; 25° F

  For those nippy desert nights when counting shooting stars is all you have to do, the semi-rectangular Western Mountaineering Alder MF is your bag of choice. Roomy enough for comfort and warm enough so you won't wake with a chill before dawn, the Alder has a 62 inch shoulder girth and a 46 inch foot girth. The Alder has a zipper along the side to mate with mummy bags and a zipper around the foot so that it can be opened flat as a comforter or zipped to Western's Summer Coupler (sold separately) to make a bed for two.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, this 25 degree sleeping bag is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

See the Best New Baits From ICAST 2025
  New baits are one of my favorite categories of products. They fill anglers with dreams of finding the lure that will result in a fish on every cast. Is that realistic? No, but its fun to dream. And while you may not have the coin to spring for a brand-new rod or reel, baits are relatively cheap, allowing virtually every...
2025 Audi S3 Review: Subcompact, But Not Substandard
  Spend enough time in crossovers and SUVs, and its easy to forget just how lovely it can be to drive a car. It doesnt matter how good the SUV is, and Im not talking supercar or even a big-dollar and bigger horsepower sports sedan; Im talking about sedans with a hint of enthusiast intention. Cars like this 2025 Audi S3...
Oversized, Out of Place, But Perfectly Balanced: Leatherman Pioneer Fixed Blade Review
  Trends often dictate a brand’s next product, but not always. Over the last year, a slew of small pocket fixed-blade knives dominated the knife market. Generally less than 6 inches, they’re designed to be discreet and effective.   But even as this sub-segment continues to grow and thrive, Leatherman opted to design its new line of Built Different fixed-blade knives as...
Stay Cozy on a Budget: REI Co-op Trailmade Jacket Review
  When I woke up, I could see my breath. Rain was falling lightly on my tent. I didnt want to get out of my sleeping bag, but the thought of a warm cup of coffee was motivation enough. I wiggled out of the down bag, shivered, and immediately reached for my REI Co-op Trailmade jacket. Slipping into that soft, cozy...
Mountain Lion Mauls 4-Year-Old in Olympic National Park, Rangers Seek Witnesses
  A mountain lion bit a 4-year-old child in Olympic National Park on July 20, 2025, resulting in a Flight for Life to Seattle. The incident, which occurred in the north section of the park near the Victoria Overlook area on Hurricane Ridge, is now under investigation. Park rangers are asking for any witnesses to contact them with information.   Rangers were...
2026 Subaru Crosstrek Gets Hybrid, Drops 2.Slow Base Engine
  The 2026 Subaru Crosstrek now comes as a hybrid. For the 2026 model year, Subaru is dumping the old 2.0 engine, going with a larger 2.5 as standard and combining it with a hybrid system as the upgrade.   Subaru is also adding more standard features like rear seat airbags and keyless access, with more extra features coming to some of...
5 Things to Look For in a Bow Sight (Before You Regret Your Purchase)
  Bow sights really have come a long way since I first shot a bow. Back then, I remember having pins that were painted different colors. My sight more resembled a bear trap than an actual bow sight. These days, we are beyond lucky with access to top-of-the-line engineered bow sights. And there are a lot of them to choose from....
New Trump Trade Deal Will Add Thousands to the Cost of Japanese Auto Imports
  American car buyers have already begun watching prices surge in the wake of the 25% auto import tariffs enacted by Pres. Donald Trump in May. As part of a new trade deal with Japan, those tariffs now will be cut to 15%. But, that still means the price of products like the Toyota 4Runner, Nissan Murano, and Mazda CX-90 could...
Scuba Diving Gamechanger? Garmin Smart Buoy Levels Up Safety With Underwater Comms
  Even in 2025, the primary methods for communicating with recreational scuba divers remain crude, at best. When its time for divers to return to their charter boat, the operators usually bang a metal pipe against the underwater hull, hoping that the clanging is loud enough to reach submerged clients. And the divers themselves still mostly rely on hand gestures to...
Learn, Listen, Connect: ‘The Big Thing’ Overland Event Goes Beyond Gear
  While in Montana, attending a demonstration with Warn Industries’ Justin Walker, he asked what the most important piece of equipment for winching was. Although his answer was a pair of gloves, someone chimed in with, “Your mind.” I can’t argue with having a good set of work gloves on hand, but I also believe the participant was spot-on.   This miraculous...
Frankenstein Shoe Combines Runner, Hiker, Climber: Salewa Wildfire NXT Review
  I reached a foot out over the airy gap below me to the rock face a few feet away, dangling from an iron rung. My shoe stuck to the opposite wall as I applied pressure. I swung my body across the abyss to the other side, my other foot joining on the slabby rock as my hands transitioned across the...
Well-Dressed Hunter: Benchmade Crooked River Folding Knife Review
  After spending much of the last year testing EDCs that push the limits of how small and light a pocket knife can be, I felt like I needed a changeup. So when Benchmade sent a sample of the Crooked River, a classically styled folder made for hunting and serious outdoor adventure, I was ready for it.   With fishing season in...
