Description

  Roomy, warm and packed with features; 20° F

  Roomy, warm, and packed with features, Western Mountaineering's AlpinLite is a wider version of the ever-popular UltraLite. If your summer bike tour or backpacking trip is going to take you through different climates, the AlpinLite is the way to go; its continuous baffles allow you to shift the down on top of you in cold temps, or underneath you when the weather warms up. With a generous 64 inch shoulder girth and 5 inches of high-lofting 850+ down, this comfortable bag is good to 20° F. The full down collar helps to seal in heat around your neck without adding excess bulk, and the full length draft tube seals in heat along the zipper. The total weight of this very compressible bag is right around 2 lbs, so you can take the AlpinLite anywhere.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, this 20 degree sleeping bag 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.

  Winner of Backpacker Magazine's Editor's Choice Award 2014

This Game-Changing Device Could Upend Training as We Know It
  Back in 2021, cycling’s international governing body, the UCI, issued a new set of rules banning the use of devices measuring “any metabolic values such as but not limited to glucose or lactate” in competition.

G3 Returns: Canadian Sports Company Revives Shuttered Ski Brand
  Following a court-ordered restructure in August 2024, the Canadian backcountry ski brand Genuine Gear Guide (G3) faced a tumultuous future. On Aug. 9, the Supreme Court of British Columbia ordered a Canadian accounting firm, Deloitte, to take over G3s assets and make a plan to liquidate them.

10 More Years of ‘Acres for America’: Walmart Pledges $34.5 Million to Habitat Conservation
  Since 2005, Walmart has partnered with the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) to fund a program called Acres for America.

The 9 Wildest Golf Courses in America
  Golf gets a bad rap. The sport has a reputation for being too expensive and too resource-intensive, which are true in some cases. There are private clubs so expensive you need to be a billionaire to join, and courses where the landscape was bulldozed to make way for overwatered and overfertilized fairways.   But not every golf course is that way....

The technique has produced delicious, consistent results from campsites in Big Sur, California, and Baja, Mexico—and in everything from frying oil to pellet grills to standard home ovens.
