A 20
  Tuckerman Ravine on the southeastern flank of Mount Washington holds an almost mythic reputation among expert backcountry skiers and snowboarders in New England. The glacial cirque sits mostly above timberline on the 6,288-foot peak, and the wide bowl boasts chutes and steep snowfields—extreme skiing terrain that is tough to find in the Northeast.   But Tuckerman is also dangerous, and reaching...
Denali Gear List: 5 Items that Made Life Better—Plus 5 Things I Learned
  By Savannah Cummins   This spring I spent nearly a month on the flanks of Denali, supporting my friend Katie Bono as she successfully set the women’s ascent speed record at 21h 6m. As my first time on a big mountain, it was an unforgettable experience despite all the suffering involved. From carrying 130lbs of gear at once, to rain, snow,...
The Best Ways to Carry Fluids on a Run
  Water is heavy—one liter weighs 2.2 pounds, and four liters weighs almost nine pounds. Even the best-designed hydration packs or vests, waistbelts, or handheld carrying systems don’t make water any less heavy than it is. A good system does, however, distribute that weight effectively and allows you to carry what you need comfortably.   Figuring out what amount of fluid you...
Rivian Unveils Smaller, More Affordable R2 Electric SUV
  Rivian unveiled its new R2 mid-size SUV to much fanfare this week, which it says should start around $45,000 when it reaches customers in 2026. About the size of a Toyota 4Runner, the Rivian is actually cheaper than most versions of that gasoline-powered 44. Some versions of the R2 will also be faster than Rivian’s flagship R1T pickup and R1S...
How a Snowboarder Survived for 20 Hours After Being Buried in an Avalanche
  Avalanche safety, like sex ed, isn’t really about abstinence. People are going to venture into the mountains, so the challenge is to minimize risk, take appropriate countermeasures, and understand when conditions are too dangerous to proceed. Still, things sometimes go wrong even if you’re following best practices, at which point the objective shifts to maximizing your odds of surviving and...
The Iditarod Is Embroiled in a Controversy Over Moose Guts
  Whats the weirdest rule in endurance sports? A few come to mind:   Regulations governing the New York City Marathon explicitly forbid runners from pooping on the pavement at the starting line. Article 7.01-G of the Ironman Triathlon rulebook prohibits nakedness in transition areas. And dont get me started on the wackadoo bylaws enforced by pro cyclings governing body, the Union...
The Trouble with the Internet’s Most Famous Moose
  When Marty Moose strolled into Santa Fe looking for a mate, he became a viral sensation in New Mexico. But that did nothing to help his search for love—and it created big issues for wildlife managers. Moose don’t usually wander that far south. Marty got a lot of “likes” and eventually his notoriety began to cause problems. Producer Steph Joyce...
Yes, Strava for Dogs Is Now a Real Thing
  Owners of adventure dogs tend to be pretty adamant that their outdoorsy pooch is not just great, but the best adventure dog ever. A sweet and understandable sentiment, if an entirely subjective one. But now, the world’s biggest fitness app is making it possible for people to back up their talk with some cold hard numbers. That’s right: Strava for...
Youth Sports Alliance Wins Big for Getting Kids Outside
  Overwhelming evidence shows that active kids do better in life—physically, emotionally, socially, and financially. That’s why Utah-based Youth Sports Alliance is committed to helping all kids experience the outdoors. With the Defender 130, that job gets a lot easier, says Executive Director Emily Fisher. “Being able to offer transportation and move mountain bikes, skis, and other gear removes a significant...

  This past June, climbers Harry Hamlin and Avery Parinello spent a couple weeks in the Ruth Gorge in Denali National Park. The Gorge is a mammoth glacial gorge cut into the lowlands below Denali by the Ruth Glacier. This enormous zone contains prodigious peaks that tempt rock climbers and ice climbers alike due to their immense size and spectacular exposure....
Skiing Is Broken. Can Indy Pass Fix It?
  If you ski, you know the problem. If you don’t ski, that problem might be the reason why. Skiing has simply become too expensive, too crowded, too commercial, just too much of what you don’t like and not enough of what you do. With megaresorts dominating the industry, peak-season lift ticket prices next winter will reach $299—per day—at some spots. Pass...
Fall Mecca: 10 Tips for Climbing Indian Creek like a Local
  By Luke Mehall   Fall means one thing to the desert climber: Indian Creek season. Located about an hour southwest of Moab, Utah, the Creek is the center for the Colorado Plateau desert climbing scene. Every year, it gets a little more popular, but the good news is there are plenty of cracks for everyone. If a climbing road trip is...
