How to Pack for Air Travel Like the Ultimate Pro
  It’s fun to imagine an apocalyptic scenario, and purchase the kind of neon green tomahawk you think will help you defeat zombie hoards. (Spoiler alert: it won’t.) But when it comes to preparing for more likely situations—say, an emergency while traveling—many of us are guilty of being caught flat-footed.   I get it. With severely limited space in carry-on luggage, plus...
Jeep Goes Orange for 4×4 Day 2025
  Jeep continues to lead the charge when it comes to factory options and customization options. While a lot of Wranglers and Gladiators are on the road, few are exactly alike. For 2025, Jeep unleashes the limited-editon Joose exterior paint, a vibrant shade of orange.   While Tuscadero pink has been one of the most bold, and surprisingly popular, limited-edition colors in...
Speedy Sole Meets Snug Support: SCARPA Rush 2 Pro Mid GTX Review
  I’m buzzing my way up the cactus- and scrub-lined Lost Mines Trail at Big Bend National Park in Far West Texas in the dark on a mission to make it to the top before sunrise. I break into a trot and hop over a tarantula that crawls out of a hole in the rocks along the path.   And I give...
The 19 Funniest Mountain Project Comments on Yosemite Routes
  Sometimes, we go to Mountain Project for the beta. But sometimes, we go for the chat. And sometimes, the chat is funny. We’ve seen brawls break out over bolts and grades. Stoke-spangled reviews—and ho-hum appraisals of testpieces. Crusty cameos. Sketchy ethics. And non-sequiturs that add to the lore of the classics.   Here are 19 of the funniest Mountain Project comments...
Shoes That Help Muscles Recover: Roll Recovery SUPERPLUSH Classic Review
  It’s not that I don’t believe the research showing that exercising consistently without recovery time can lead to decreased strength gains and possibly injury. It’s just that finding the time to take these breaks is hard. Needless to say, when a product that promised multitasking recovery benefits rolled across my desk, I was intrigued, especially since it came from a...
Sitka Studios Wants to Use Cutting-Edge Apparel to Sell You on Conservation
  Who makes the most advanced outdoor clothing? Ask a skier or a hiker, and theyre likely to name some familiar brands. Ask a hunter, and they will probably tell you Sitka Gear. I tend to side with the hunters.   Sitka Gear has been at the forefront of technical innovation in apparel that keeps you warm and dry when youre in...
The E-Bike of the Seas: Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 Review
  “So, is it really kayaking, then?” A small crowd had gathered around the dock to inspect the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+, the first recreational kayak to incorporate an electric pedal drive. I’m not sure they were immediately sold.   The neo-Luddite in me was steadfast: of course not. But, softening, I reconsidered. Yes, of course. Maybe? The Malibu is...
Fill Your Own 1-Lb. Propane Bottles at the Station: Ignik Launches ‘TapRack’
  A buddy of mine nearly blew his garage up trying to refill his 1-pound propane bottles for his camping grill. Dont be like my buddy.   Refilling disposable propane bottles at home is downright dangerous (just ask my buddy) and even illegal in most places due to the hazards. But those classic green bottle propane tanks serve us so well for...
Ikon Adds Le Massif de Charlevoix: Ski Quebec’s ‘Highest Vertical Drop’ in 2025/26 Season

Automakers Scramble to Respond to Trump’s Tariff War
  While the new trade sanctions are expected to add thousands to the cost of the typical new vehicle, even those assembled in the U.S., some manufacturers promise to hold the line on prices — for now.   On Friday, Hyundai launched a new “Customer Assurance” program that aims to soothe consumer fears about the potential impact of the new Trump tariffs on...
Get Ready for Backpacking Season With These Gear Picks From REI
  With warm weather on the way, now is the perfect time to prepare for spring backpacking adventures. That means dusting off the trail shoes, making lists of must-hike routes, and examining that tent seam you promised to fix last fall.   As you take inventory of your backcountry kit, you can count on REI to fill in the gaps and ensure...
Hiking with Your Dog? Watch Out for These Dangerous Plants
  While hiking a snowy mesa in Flagstaff, Arizona, I noticed my dog was limping. Every few steps, she’d tuck up her back paw and hop on three legs. We stopped, and I knelt to inspect. There, piercing her paw pad, was a long cactus spine. Gently, I held her paw and pulled it straight out. I hadn’t noticed the hazard...
