  Ultralight hammock underquilt; 20° F

  The Western Mountaineering SlingLite is a luxurious and ultralight hammock underquilt. The SlingLite fits most brands of gathered-end hammocks and weighs only 13 ounces. A down underquilt is simply the best way to ensure that body heat is retained throughout the night. The SlingLite is rated to about 20° F when coupled with comparable topside insulation such as a sleeping bag or quilt.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the SlingLite is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

An Ode to the Relationships We Owe to the Outdoors  
  The outdoors have a way of delivering to us our soulmates. Sometimes, that’s a romantic partner, discovered on a mountain-summit meet-cute. Other times, it’s the fiercely loyal friends we never knew we needed. Maybe you’ve noticed the same—that your best friends are your adventure friends. There’s a reason for that dynamic. The outdoors draws out the best and the worst...
Diagrams Align Your Practice: Liforme Rainbow Yoga Mat Is Like an On-Call Instructor
  Going with the flow is an essential part of any yoga class. But being able to move quickly through poses is less important than making sure to have proper alignment in each pose. Without that, you may not get the benefits of the poses — and, worst-case scenario, you may even risk developing overuse injuries over time.   Unless you do...

When Is the Best Time to Eat Breakfast?
  Breakfast is a surprisingly controversial meal. Many swear it’s a crucial part of setting yourself up for a successful day, but some decide to skip it. While nearly 85 percent of Americans over 20 years old eat breakfast, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), everyone approaches the first meal of the day differently, including the timing...

Custom, Capable, and Basically Bottomless: San Util Design Expandable Off Piste Ski Touring Pack Review
  All season, Ive been experimenting with how much I can fit in my San Util Design Off Piste Ski Touring Pack. I havent found a realistic limit yet. Ive stuffed puffies, fleece midlayers, extra goggles, sunglasses cases, bottles of water, cans of beer, baseball hats, knit caps, balaclavas, salami, cheese, other snacks, an insulated blanket, and, of course, my beacon,...
People-Friendly Bad Boy Blade: Kizer ‘Nice Guy’ Review
  Over the past 5 or so years, there has been a strong reaction to the overly aggressive “tactical” folders that saw popularity in the early aughts. Those massive, slabby, and less socially acceptable knives have since been replaced by, or supplemented with, smaller, slicier, more people-friendly blades.   These knives, typified by offerings like the Knafs Lander and the TRM Nerd,...
Technical Peacoat, ‘Crush-Proof’ Speaker, $600 Flashlight, and More Emerging Gear
  Judging by the historic winter storm currently battering the southern U.S. —its pretty clear weve still got plenty of snow and ice ahead of us. But that aint no thang for us GearJunkies. After all, what self-respecting outdoorsman (or woman) doesnt view tough conditions as a challenge?   You wont have much fun in freezing temperatures without some decent gear, though....
Trump Just Renamed North America’s Highest Peak. These Climbers Will Still Call It “Denali.”
  On Monday, January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename Alaska’s 20,310-foot Denali, the highest peak in North America. The mountain’s name will revert to Mount McKinley, named for William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, who was assassinated on September 14, 1901.   The decree undoes the work of former President Barack Obama, who,...
How to Experience a Real Winter Wonderland in Mammoth Lakes
  Picture this: towering pine trees dusted with snow, poconip (frozen fog) rolling in over alpine lakes, and mountain peaks glistening in the winter sun. If you think this scene is from a distant landscape or straight out of a Hallmark movie, think again.   Mammoth Lakes is a real-life winter wonderland tucked on the eastern slope of California’s Sierra Nevada range....
Waterproof for Wet Dogs: Shodu Car Seat Cover for the Back Seat and Door Panels
  When a grumbling thunderstorm surprised my dog and me on an autumn hike, the Shodu Waterproof Dog Car Seat Cover rose to the occasion.   The storm produced so much hail and rain that the trail looked like a small creek. Water and mud dripped off my dog. Thankfully, it all beaded up on the seat covers face fabric. Puddles sat...
New Rules on Everest: Officials May Ban Unsupported Attempts and Require Guides
  The original version of this story appeared on ExplorersWeb.   The cost of Everest climbing permits will rise 36% beginning this fall, the Nepalese government announced this week. However, that news surprised few of the mountains many guiding companies.   More significant is a new regulation that could ban independent climbers from all of the country’s peaks over 8,000 m.
