Description

  The ideal 4-person base camp tent, built for the harshest conditions

  Because of both its tremendous strength and its spaciousness, the Hilleberg Saitaris has a remarkably broad range of use. Those needing the ultimate base camp tent – such as mountaineers tackling remote, high altitude climbs – and expedition travelers to the most demanding environments will find its strength and its excellent space to weight ratio invaluable. Ski tourers and paddle tourers alike will value both its roomy interior and its gear-swallowing vestibules, as well as its easy-to-pitch, self-supporting structure. These same users will also find the Saitaris’ attributes perfect for less formidable adventures, such as leisurely family camping trips to the beach or the mountains, or for car camping.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.

Simple Setup, Perfect Packability: NEMO Mayfly OSMO Review
  The more I gear I test the more I find myself starting sentences with, “I’m not ultralight but …”   NEMO’s new Mayfly OSMO would introduce itself the same way. Only, it can end that statement with, “You’ll love me anyway.”   As someone with a sweet spot for modifying cheap gear, I wouldn’t call $400 MSRP “budget.” However, compared with most...
The Darkness That Blew My Mind
  The darkness has a name, but I don’t know that yet. All I know is that I’m scared.   I’m sitting with my feet in a creek in the scrubby mountains southeast of Ashland, Oregon, watching how the water spills over gray rocks into a shallow pool. All day long, I’ve been alone and unplugged, doing my best to savor moments...
How Realistic Is Mark Wahlberg’s New Adventure Racing Movie, “Arthur the King?”
  In “Arthur the King,” released on the big screen by Lionsgate on March 15, Mark Wahlberg and an adventure race team trail run, climb, zipline, mountain bike, and kayak while navigating a jungle route with a map and compass. They race through the night with headlamps, take short naps bundled up on the ground in emergency blankets, and slog through...
8 Years and Counting: 1620 Work Pants Are Tough as Nails
  When it comes to work pants, everyone eventually starts wearing the same things. At my last engineering job, one guy started wearing Duluth Trading Fire Hose Work Pants —within a month, everyone else was, too.   Working in a demanding environment, you want a pair of pants that keep up with the abuse you put on them, day in and day...
Old Town Releases Limited-Edition Fire Tiger Color Scheme
  If Fire Tiger lures catch the big fish, why not slap it on a kayak? Thats exactly what Old Town Watercraft did.   Theres something very fitting about seeing one of the most popular lure color combos on a kayak. Not only is it a rad combo that consistently sees success at the end of the line, but its just a...
Lolo Racks 6-Bike Rack Review: A Sturdy Rack Ready for All Bikes and Adventures
  Lolo Racks, launched in the Pacific Northwest in 2016, first caught my attention when I spotted one at a trailhead in Bend, Ore. The innovative vertical hitch bike rack design, capable of carrying four or six bikes, intrigued me.   Since then, Ive tested various rack styles, both horizontal and vertical, but none seemed to meet all the criteria for our...
The Best Work Pants of 2024

KEEN Targhee IV Test: More Sustainable, Comfortable, and a Lifetime Guarantee
  The seemingly inevitable splitting of the midsole and upper, or outsole and midsole, has been the death of countless hiking boots. With the Targhee IV, KEEN claims to have found a cure for this delamination.   KEEN sent me a test pair of early-production Targhee IV boots, which launch on April 4 in the U.S. So, I laced them up and...
The Best Camping Lanterns of 2024
  A good camping lantern is an outdoor essential. Its a major help while cooking, is great for nightly camp games, and sets just the right outdoor ambiance. Sure, you could just use a flashlight or headlamp, but a lantern lights up the entire camp and makes two-handed tasks easier.   While there isnt a single best camping lantern for everyone, we...
Here’s Why Overlanders (and Tailgaters) Splurge on REDARC
  Life on the road can be demanding. Long hauls, bad weather, desolate stretches — you never know what’s going to pop up. But regardless of where the road (or offroad) might take you — theres one companion every road warrior needs: the REDARC Mobile Power System.   Whether youre navigating the untamed wilderness, transforming a van into a home on wheels,...
One Blade, Dozens of Uses: SOG Tellus FX Review
  Full transparency: It’s tougher for me to test and review fixed-blade knives compared to folders. With a folder, you can throw it in a pocket and use it when the situation arises. But a fixed-blade knife is a whole other vibe.   In modern society, fixed blades have a very specific vibe that relegates them to the woods, a campsite, or...
You Shouldn’t Be Able to Pay With Cash OR a Card at a National Park. They Should Be Free.
  In January 2020, Park Spring National Monument in Arizona became the first National Park System site to go cashless. In the years since, roughly 30 destinations made the switch to card or mobile-only payments, including big names like Zion, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon. This shift was likely insignificant for the 60 percent of Americans who report using cash for few to...
