  There’s a new plan in Washington D.C. to auction off public lands, and this one involves millions of acres spread across nearly a dozen Western states.

Video: What Footwear Should You Wear at Mount Everest Base Camp?
  Last month we sent reporter Ben Ayers to Mount Everest Base Camp. Ben brought a ton of outdoor gear with him to test: boots, sleeping bags, parkas, gloves, and other items that are built for the harshest alpine environment.   In this video, Ben discusses the footwear that got him through the 11-day trek from Lukla to Base Camp, and also...
Fast and Versatile, On or Off Trail: Nike Terra Kiger 10 Review
  Parked at the trailhead, I’m standing outside my truck, stuffing gas station food and storm layers into my running vest. The sun is baking the high desert valley floor, and the temperature is already above 80 degrees — it’s 8:00 a.m. I arrived at the trailhead a few hours later than I intended. As the king of late starts, this...
Fancy Fabric Adds Camp Comfort: EXPED LuxeMat Duo Review
  Camping and comfort aren’t words that always pair together. Although most camp setups don’t hold a flame to a fancy hotel (or even a glamping setup), it is possible to sleep under the stars while being maximally comfortable. If you have the right gear.   A big fan of sleeping outdoors, I’ve cumulatively spent over a year of my life sleeping...

Authorities arrested Boelter, 57, on Monday morning after locating him in a field near his abandoned vehicle. The image from...
When Is It OK to Rescue a Wild Animal?
  This winter a woman in Steamboat Springs spotted an elk on her property. When she went out to take a picture, the animal startled and ran into a gully where it got stuck in snow up to its neck. Convinced the elk needed rescue, she called game wardens, who told her to leave the animal alone. By morning, she’d gathered...
‘TILT’ Titanium Coating Adds Warmth Without Weight: Rab Mythic Ultra 180 Sleeping Bag Review
  The sun dipped below the horizon, and I was set to sleep on top of Wetterhorn Peak at 14,021 feet. Deep in the mountains of Colorado, I was putting my sleeping bag system to a real stress test: Would I be able to stay warm enough at the equivalent elevation of Camp 3 on Denali? All signs were pointing to...
Custom-Made Performance Piece Is a Study in Reliability: Schwarz Overland Sport Review
  I am always looking for my next knife because the knife world is forever changing and evolving. I constantly pay attention to trends and what’s making an impact out there. Though this is helpful in my job as a freelance writer who tests and reviews a bunch of knives, sometimes my wallet and I don’t agree on my choices. In...
Hidden Treasure Hikes: Where to Search for Lost Loot Across America
  Finding a cache of gold out in the woods is every hikers dream —and sometimes, it comes true. In February 2025, two tourists were hiking on a hill in the Czech Republic when they stumbled upon a life-changing find. They noticed a tin can and a metal case tucked within an old manmade wall.   Upon pulling them out and opening...

Lightning Strikes 14er Hikers — While on the Phone With Colorado SAR
  The arrival of summer means more hikers seeking high-altitude summits —and more rescues when they get into trouble. That was evident this weekend, when a lightning strike on a couple of Colorado hikers resulted in a high-altitude rescue from some of the states most experienced first responders.   The rescue began Thursday evening, June 12, when Colorados Alpine Rescue Team was...
