Mountain Running in the Sierra Nevada
  One of the best parts of mountain running is when you get to walk. I’m not calling mountain running a gentle stroll, but generally, you’re not full-on, maxed-out sprinting hour after hour up an enormous rock pile. The running part is great, but the main draw is that rock pile and the ones around it. Just being, and moving, in...

How to Hike the Oregon Coast Trail
  Words and Photos by Laura Lancaster      “I knew you were coming.”   I had been dreading this stretch of the Oregon Coast Trail that ran between Manzanita and Tillamook since we started weekend thru-hiking (or section-hiking) it in chunks back in 2017. Heading south from Tillamook, the OCT follows Highway 101—the main artery for the Oregon Coast—for over 10 miles...

Packrafting the Flathead River in Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness
  Packrafting opened up a world of adventure for me. Being from the desert, the idea of hauling a raft deep into the wilderness was fairly novel.

Pure Function, No Flash, Budget Price: REI Co-op Trailmade Pants Review
  Many years ago, during a high-angle rescue course, I was introduced to the KISS principle: Keep It Simple, Stupid. The idea is that systems tend to function best when they’re kept simple rather than made unnecessarily complex. It’s a design philosophy rooted in practicality, and it applies surprisingly well to gear.   The REI Co-op Trailmade Pants ($70) are a great...
Vaunted Folding Bike Takes On Gravel: Brompton G Line Review
