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.

This Bag Survived Our Move to New Zealand: Patagonia Black Hole Wheeled 100L Duffel Review
  Packing light does not come naturally to me. I’m (regrettably) the person breaking a sweat to shove their too-full carry-on into the overhead compartment, the one who throws an extra eight items into the backseat seconds before pulling out of the driveway for a road trip.   So, when my husband, son, and I decided to uproot our lives in Colorado...
The Best Work Pants for Women of 2024
  Women in hands-on industries often turn to men’s workwear to get by. But the landscape of women’s workwear is quickly changing, and with that, choice follows. There are now brands dedicated to finding the perfect balance between fit and function for women’s workwear. Gone are the days of needing to buy pants too big so our hips would fit, but...
Beloved CO Mountain Finally Caves, Will Charge Visitors to Park in 2024
  Arapahoe Basin will start charging for all parking lots for the first time. Every lot at the Colorado resort will now be $20 (at least) per vehicle on weekends and holidays, and reservations will be required.   Last year, the ski area was purchased by Alterra Mountain Company, owner of the Ikon Pass and Aspen Mountain, and the primary competitor to...
The Best Wireless Earbuds Under $50 of 2024
  We like to think were fairly easy on our electronics. But when it comes to reviews, there’s a certain perverse pleasure in seeing just how much abuse a piece of gear can take. Especially cheaper items, which can be pushed to the limits without sweating your wallet.   And speaking of sweat and punishment, perhaps no tool in our kits has...
On the Front Lines of NYC’s ‘Kittenpocalypse’
  We think of New York as having a rat problem, but cats are doing just as much damage. They hunt staggering numbers of birds, they carry parasites that cause birth defects, they spread diseases that wash into the ocean and kill sea otters and seals. NYC’s cat population is exploding. Reporter Meg Duff investigates what, if anything, might be done...
The 14 Best Sunglasses for 2024
  Last fall, we gathered a crew of Lake Tahoe, California-based testers with a range of interests—trail running, cycling, fly-fishing, climbing, nordic skiing, and more—gave each several pairs of sunglasses, and told them to play hard. They broke frames, fogged up lenses, and put the more than five dozen shades to the test on trails, roads, and water. This collection of...
World’s Most Famous Balloon Is Now Part of a Luxury Watch
  If you happened to be reading the news in March 1999 (almost certainly on physical paper, no kidding), one story would have probably been below the fold on page one. And that would have been the story ofBertrand Piccard,Brian Jones, and the Breitling Orbiter 3.   On March 1, 1999, Piccard and Jones launched from theSwisstown ofChâteau-dOex. The duo spent the...
From Laws to Licenses: The Essential Guide to Flying Drones in the Great Outdoors
  Outdoor lovers often balk at bringing ever more technology into the outdoors — but as I learned when field-testing a new drone, an eye in the sky can add fun and improve access to outdoor spaces. But its imperative to do so respectfully by following drone laws and regulations.   So, when bringing drones into the great outdoors, there are two...
Cody Townsend Ends Massive ‘FIFTY Project’ at 46: Questions Swirl Around Unexpected Conclusion
  In 2010, Chris Davenport, Art Burrows, and Penn Newhard published the first edition of The 50 Classic Ski Descents in North America. Fourteen years later, professional skier Cody Townsend is wrapping up the first documented attempt to backcountry ski every single one of them.   On March 20, 2024, Townsend halted the eponymous FIFTY Project after his 46th descent. And followers...
onX Takes to the Water, Acquires TroutRoutes
  OnX is well on its way to being the one-stop shop for all things outdoor mapping with its most recent acquisition: TroutRoutes. The company has teased the idea of wading into the water with the upcoming onX Fish. The new app will be available in Minnesota this spring and will slowly expand across the Midwest. By adding TroutRoutes to the...
We’re Gifting $25,000 to This Life
  The nonprofit Youth Sports Alliance charges scholarship recipients $50 for five weeks of ski gear, transportation, and lessons in Utah’s Wasatch Valley. Sounds like a steal, right? That’s what YSA executive director Emily Fisher thought, too, when she first arrived on staff six years ago. Then she got to work.   It was 2017, and Fisher was at an introductory meeting,...
