Thru-hiking-specific guide apps like FarOut allow hikers to access useful information like elevation profiles, weather, camping options, trail angel contact info,...

　　But, Amazfit? I’d never even heard of the brand. Was it Amazon’s entry into the market? How would it stack up with Garmin, COROS, Suunto, and Apple? The Cheetah Pro certainly doesnt have the name recognition of those fitness watch brands, but it talked the big talk on paper — and the name sounded fast. 　　As it turns out, even if...

　　Its tough to imagine which would be more exciting: traversing the Sierra Nevada mountains on a nearly unexplored stretch of singletrack, or doing it aboard a bespoke bicycle built for you for free. 　　Believe it or not, thats the deal on the table as part of the Builders for Builders fundraiser.

　　Lukas McClish had been lost, wandering the Santa Cruz Mountains of California for 10 days before he was rescued on June 20. When the 34-year-old hiker finally came out of the woods, he was shirtless, scruffy, and on the verge of malnutrition.

I’ve largely replaced Skittles with real fruit and beer with...

　　My touring partners and I crouched at the summit of our planned ski line, engulfed in a cloud of whipping winds and spindrift. It felt like chaos. I carefully donned insulating layers, fighting the wind’s attempt to tear them out of my hands. The anxiety was building. My Anon M5 ski goggles were the last piece. 　　I hastily swapped the...

　　The 2024 Subaru WRX TR is the hottest version of the Subaru WRX. For now, that is. Because the TR is a 1-year-only special that is biding time until an even hotter one arrives. 　　That doesnt mean you should wait, though, because the basics of the last remaining rally sedan are better than ever, and the Rex is still equally...

　　The tour includes various landscapes that assault riders in different ways. Sprints create exciting finishes where athletes often win by microscopic margins. Time trials force riders to give all-out performances, leaving fans marveling at their power. Hilly stages are sometimes wild cards where racers can take risks and push themselves differently. 　　But nothing blows the pack of the Tour de...

　　The critics were correct—of course we should have had a Garmin inReach. 　　Early last October, after nearly 10,000 miles of hiking together without major incident, my wife, Tina, and I became separated on the Continental Divide Trail.
