Lightweight, Durable, Backcountry-Ready: Flylow Stash Men’s Ski Bib Review
  It was just after sunrise on a cold February morning in Colorados backcountry. Three others and I put on our skins and prepared to cross the wilderness boundary, starting our climb. I was testing the Flylow Mens Stash ski bibs, and we were on a videography mission.   I had high hopes for conditions, though we had already encountered trouble with...
Discover Santa Fe’s Wild Side
  Even locals get inspired by the view from the top of Picacho Peak Trail. Below, adobe homes nestle into the piñon-juniper forests. Above, the sky often shows off brilliant shades of orange and purple. In the distance, mountains stack up on the horizon. It feels like you’re a world away—and yet you’re only a couple miles from Santa Fe’s historic...
7 of the Best Bikepacking Trips Across the U.S.
  Bikepacking might be the perfect adventure. Ride bikes, sleep outside. It’s like bike touring, only dirtier since you’re camping and carrying all your gear on your bike, as opposed to staying in lodges and relying on your credit card for sustenance. I’ve been bikepacking for almost 20 years now, and continue to be entranced by its charm. Pedaling into the...
Sign of the Times: Opinel Updates Its Iconic Collar Lock for the First Time in 70 Years
  Since 1890, French knifemaker Opinel has been crafting affordable, reliable, folding knives that are easily recognized by their distinctive wooden handles. Opinels simple construction enabled the company to keep its prices low, and thus buoyed the brands sustained popularity among the outdoor crowd over the last 135 years.   However, the one thing Opinel is not known for is change.   While...
Crankin’ In Whoppers With the KastKing Megatron 200
  Spring has come and gone, and summer is blasting its heat, pushing fish deeper. I wanted to catch the big bass, but didn’t have a great setup for big lures (like swimbaits and deep-diving crankbaits) until a few months ago.   KastKing offered to send the Megatron 200 baitcasting reel to test this spring and summer. I’ve taken it to several...
Hypoxic Hikers: Osprey Made a Backpack Just for You
  While many outdoor brands pay lip service to inclusivity, its still difficult for many disabled hikers to find the gear they need. Osprey is trying to change that with the Talon Oxygen, a daypack specifically designed to assist people in carrying supplemental oxygen.   People with hypoxia, a condition where the bodys tissues dont get adequate oxygen, often use supplemental oxygen...
Burly, Stylish, Functional: Mountain Hardwear Women’s Boundary Ridge GORE-TEX Ski Jacket Review
  When you’re skiing hard all season, you need a ski jacket that can roll with the conditions, through deep midwinter powder days and sunny spring laps. The Mountain Hardwear Women’s Boundary Ridge GORE-TEX womens ski jacket was designed with exactly that kind of versatility in mind.   Built with a tough three-layer GORE-TEX shell, it’s made to handle the worst weather...
Flylow Super D Ski Gloves Review: Cozy, Waterproof, and Very Comfortable
  My Flylow Super D Ski Gloves are so comfortable that I wish I could wear them year-round.Theyve also been a surprising conversation starter on the ski lift. Riders want to know the brands origin story and the quality of its gloves. My verdict: These are not the warmest or most streamlined ski gloves in my quiver, but theyre among the...
West Virginia Is Home to the Perfect Summer Road Trip
  The Mountain State, Almost Heaven, Wild and Wonderful, West Virginia has a few different reputations, all of which hint at the goods sandwiched inside this small state’s borders. And the state of adventure in West Virginia just seems to keep getting better with the addition of new public lands and fresh trail systems.   I recently spent three days driving through...
Escape the Heat in These 7 Cool Weather Adventure Towns
  Two summers ago, I was halfway up a scree-strewn slope in Californias Eastern Sierra when I noticed that my shirt was clingy with sweat and my face was the same shade as my dogs geranium-patterned collar. I made a promise: no more more hikes with the mercury pushing 90; future summer adventure planning would take temperature into serious account.   Im...
Now Is the Best Time to See the Perseid Meteor Shower. Here’s How.
  There’s a reason stargazers love the Perseids. The meteor shower can spark up to 100 shooting stars per hour at peak during prime viewing years, with numerous sightings of eye-popping fireballs—the name for especially vivid and colorful meteors that can reach the same luminosity as Venus.   The Perseids, which peak in August, do come with a slight hitch: the 86-percent...
When in Rome, Do as the Runners Do
  It’s early on a Tuesday morning in mid-March, and Isabella Calidonna is ready to run. She’s got a hydration pack wrapped around her back and a smile on her face while standing next to the Baroque Four Rivers Fountain in the heart of Rome, Italy. This centerpiece of the famed Navona Piazza, she tells me, is among more than 2,000...
