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.

When It’s Time to Replace Your Running Shoes
  When this assignment hit my inbox, my first thought was: I am 100 percent going to find out that I need to buy new running shoes. I jog a few times a week and haven’t replaced my Hoka Clifton 9’s since 2023. The chunky, cushioned sole that Hokas are known for has been flattened by months of trail running, and...
Why Shopping at Your Local Running Store Matters
  If you run, you’re a runner.   It doesn’t matter what pace you run or how long you go, but it does matter where you buy your running shoes.   There are a lot of places to buy running shoes nowadays—at a big sporting goods shop, at a mall chain store, at an online retailer, at a discount website or at a...
How to Plan Your “Sick” Powder Days Two Weeks in Advance
  Nothing ruins a ski vacation faster than no snow, and scoring a powder day can feel like winning the lottery in these climate-challenged times. While the global forecaster AccuWeather makes projections up to 90 days out, specific, precise daily reports cannot be made more than ten days in advance, according to a 2019 study published in the Journal of the Atmospheric...
You Should Layer Your Gloves. Here’s Why.
  Ever spend an hour hiking in the winter and find your fingers quickly lose feeling? Thats your body telling you that its too damn cold out, and bringing your warm blood back into your chest.

The Worst National-Parks Reviews of the Year
  Described as “America’s best idea,” the National Park System was established in large part to protect the nation’s most precious landscapes, from the deepest canyons to the tallest peaks.

A Tale of Two Records on the Arizona Trail
  If you want to set a fastest known time on the 817-mile Arizona Trail, you have to start fast. At least, that’s what both Nick Fowler and Georgia Porter proved this fall.

Should I Help an Airbnb Owner Bust His Squatters?
  Dear Sundog: We recently went to a wedding in a mountain resort town. We rented a condo online because the wedding hotel was fully booked. I had qualms because I know that people like us are driving up the cost of living for locals, but didn’t have a better option so I swallowed the qualms. After a flight delay we...
Last-Minute Gifts from a Bad Uncle
  It’s less than a week until Christmas. If you’re anything like me—a childlike adult living kid-free—that means you might have just enough time to get a gift to your nieces, nephews, and friends’ offspring sometime before January.   Two years ago, I wrote a piece explaining my program of purchasing children the most dangerous, parent-annoying knives, motorcycles, and archery gear possible. But since...
