Information Recommendation
First Look: Danner N45
  Nothing challenges a shoe like thru-hiking a long trail. On the 2,650-mile Pacific Crest Trail, you need the Goldilocks of hiking footwear: comfortable, breathable, lightweight, and durable. If that sounds like a tall order, it’s because it is, and most thru-hikers compromise by choosing comfort over durability, using trail runners that need to be replaced at least four times on...
Great Binoculars, Value Price: Nocs Provision Pro Issue 8×42 Review
  What do a bagel with cream cheese and a pair of binoculars have in common? Usually, not much. But living out in the boonies near a bird sanctuary, I often eat breakfast (a bagel and cream cheese) while scanning the land to see what our birds are doing.   Since last fall, my glass of choice has been the Nocs Provision...

Super Light and Surprisingly Sturdy: Dometic TRT 140 Air Review
  More than 1,500 miles from home, I opened my trucks tailgate and pulled out the two-burner stove. As I started cooking dinner, waves crashed loudly on the rocky shore, a stones throw away. It was 4:30 p.m.   Moments earlier, Id peeled off my wetsuit and booties, and the sun was setting along Mexicos northern Baja California Peninsula. A couple of...
‘3D Knitted’ From a Single Thread: Seamless Merino Sweater Has Eye-Watering Price Tag

So theres no doubt that in the outdoors, merino wool is a beloved staple. But $400 worth of love?   Vollebak, the bombastic builder of such oddities as a $3,000 wooden jacket, today...

Why We Explore
  It’s the single most iconic vista in all of Newfoundland, all the more prized because it’s so hard to reach. By the time we clambered over the final set of boulders to get there, we’d been climbing for more than six hours, accompanied by clouds of voracious and seemingly waterproof black flies that were undeterred by the steadily falling rain....
