What’s the Best Way to Deal with Gear Mansplaining?
  Dear Gear, I’ve been a confident skier, mountain biker, and climber for over three decades. I’m also a woman. For some reason, most of the guys in my life seem to think it’s OK to mansplain how to use my gear to me, and it makes me want to scream. What’s the best way to handle this situation so I...
Hike, Party, Repeat: HIGHLANDER Backpacking Festival Brings Music, Workshops, and More to the Trail
  The words backpacking and festival dont often appear together in the same phrase. Festivals are loud, crowded places full of energy, entertainment, food, drink, and merch.

The tiny settlement (population 100ish) is literally a ghost town, where a handful of homes and businesses mingle with a cemetery and the stone ruins of a late 1800s mining camp. It’s dusty, hot as hell, and about 240 miles to the nearest Whole Foods. And yet, I fell in love with...
