Roush Performance has just launched the Roush RT6 F-150, a truck with a whopping 6-inch lift that meets federal safety standards and is available at select Ford dealers.

Full Support for Load-Bearing Adventures: Zamberlan Thunder Pro GTX Hiking Boot Review
  Dust and loose rock slipped beneath my feet as I descended Scout Trail. It had been a dry summer in Colorado, and many of the western slopes trails were getting sloppy like this one. I moved quickly downhill, though, confident in my boots ability to grip the terrain and support my ankles if I happened to misstep.   Id been using...
Boone & Crockett’s ‘Poach & Pay’ Takes Aim at Poaching
  The Boone Crockett Club makes it clear that hunting and poaching are not the same. Ethical hunters follow regulations. Poachers steal from the public. The club’s Poach Pay program sets out to change the way people view and punish wildlife crime.   Poaching also carries real costs. It undermines wildlife management, reduces conservation funding, and erodes public trust. Despite this, penalties...
Breathable and Affordable, These May Be the Last Early-Season Pants You Buy: Badlands Andaire Review
  As an archery hunter, Ive spent a lot of time hunting in extremely hot weather. When I lived in Utah, our deer and elk seasons began in mid-August. Have you been to Utah that time of year? Blistering desert heat.   Now, in Tennessee, I sweat in the humidity while hanging trail cams in the summer and sit in a treestand...

Low-Profile Helmet With Freeride Comfort: Atomic Four AMID Pro Ski Helmet Review
  The morning had been bluebird, bright, and borderline hot at Arapahoe Basin Ski Area. As the day progressed, though, the weather started to turn. Big, dark storm clouds loomed to the south and seemed to be drifting in my direction.   My Atomic Four AMID Pro Helmet had been helping ventilate my head all morning. But I knew that if it...

Athletes Retrace the Original Footsteps From Japan’s Hardest Hiking Route
  Once upon a time, there was a monk who lived in a cave in the Japanese Alps. He climbed peaks, establishing hiking routes, and made many of the regions first ascents. Banryu Shonin is the Father of Japanese Alpinism. He died in 1840, leaving a legacy that largely defined the nations relationship with its mountains. In 2025, four athletes followed...
How Not to Be a ‘Bad Tourist’ in the Outdoors
  Few things inspire more clickworthy internet rage than stories about tourists who suffer consequences after doing “stupid” things. Every summer, someone else is getting gored by something with horns, tossed by something with antlers, rescued from trails they had no business hiking, or causing a domino effect of river rescues. Often, there’s a phone and a selfie somewhere in the...
The Best Hunting Socks of 2025
  As a kid, I often wore two or three pairs of cotton socks topped with a super thick wool sock. It was a very inefficient system and did more harm than good. After many years, miles, and cold sits, I learned just how important good hunting socks are.   Hunting socks may not be a glamorous gear item, but they sure...

  Extreme adaptability and versatility can be found throughout the animal kingdom, but may have found their peak expression in Alexi Pappas. As a runner, Pappas was a two-time All-American for Dartmouth who set a national record running for Greece at the 2016 Olympics. As a performer, she was a member of Dartmouth’s gut-busting Dog Day improv group before going on...
