Battle Mountain 2
Big Agnes
Battle Mountain 2
$799.95
Description

  The Battle Mountain is a spacious, four-season, lightweight mountaineering tent that offers full protection in the harshest of backcountry and high-alpine conditions.

  The golden yellow color of the Battle Mountain was requested by Chhiring Dorje Sherpa, a Big Agnes Ambassador and friend who has summited Mount Everest 17 times. It is meant to serve as a tribute to honor the Tibetan Buddhism goddess of prosperity and good fortune, Miyo Losangma, whose skin is golden yellow. The golden-colored fly is made of Dominico undyed polyester ripstop, and made with high-tenacity yarn to provide incredible tear strength and UV resistance that won’t fade in the harsh elements.

  With so much experience summiting 8,000+ meter peaks around the Himalaya, Chhiring’s invaluable input on the overall design, combined with his testing over the years, solidifies the Battle Mountain as one of the best mountaineering tents on the market.

Footprint sold separately.

Watch: SAR Airlifts Injured Skiers After Apple Watch SOS
  First responders shared a spicy rescue that occurred in northwest Washington state last Wednesday. The King County Sheriff’s Air Support Unit responded to a rescue request on Jan. 22 after receiving a SOS alert from an Apple Watch worn by a backcountry skier. As they flew a helicopter to the coordinates, rescuers only knew that a male skier had been injured...
How’s a Small, Made-in-the-USA Company to Survive These Days?
  On a brisk weekday in October 2023, three sewing machines hummed while experimental indie pop played quietly inside a warehouse near the airport in Missoula, Montana. Three sewers had their heads down, assembling eggplant-colored jumpsuits, as Mallory Ottariano, the 34-year-old founder of the women’s outdoor clothing brand Youer, squinted into a dizzying spreadsheet. The Youniverse—what Ottariano, a queen of puns,...
2025 Toyota 4Runner First Drive Review: A Rugged SUV That Outshines the Land Cruiser
  The new 4Runner did not surprise me in any way. It is exactly the modern off-road-capable vehicle you expect it to be, and essentially the SUV version of the latest Tacoma pickup. That means it is the most comfortable, capable, and adventure-ready 4Runner ever. But, it also means its got lots of little flaws and a few glaring ones.   Toyota...
Big Tires, Big Attitude: Arctic Trucks Toyota Land Cruiser 250 AT37
  It was 40 years ago that the Prado badge first appeared on the light-duty Land Cruiser, but the badge never made it to the North American market. For 2025, the U.S. Land Cruiser is the world market Prado, the first time the Prado platform has had a Toyota badge on this continent — as its had the Lexus GX badge...
Lexus Gets Salty With the Surf LX Concept
  Its the gnarliest Lexus ever. The Lexus Surf LX concept off-roader comes loaded up with gear storage, a custom exo cage, and, most importantly, a slide-out wax table. Its a cool take on the Lexus LX SUV to show off that Lexus has just announced it will continue to be the Official Automotive Partner of the World Surf League.   Lexus...
Freeride Bibs Built for Backcountry and Resort: High-Performance Arc’teryx Sabre Bib Pant Review
  The first rays of sunlight illuminated the Elk Mountains on the periphery of Crested Butte Mountain Resort on a below-freezing December morning. My truck actually says it’s -15 degrees Fahrenheit, as I drive to the backcountry trailhead, trailer in tow. There’s 6 inches of fresh snow in town — meaning the backcountry likely (and hopefully) picked up triple those numbers....
The Internet’s Most Common Mountain Bike Tech Questions Answered
  A version of this article originally appeared on Pinkbike.    Its easy to become part of an echo chamber. Pinkbike often gets lost in the finer points of mountain bike technology, from suspension platforms to frame flex. But what kind of questions are people asking about mountain biking outside the platform? For one, what are the best mountain bikes for beginners? Below, Pinkbikes editors...

Can Probiotic Supplements Improve Athletic Performance? Maybe, but Doctor’s Won’t Recommend Them—Yet.
  As someone who’s dealt with digestive issues for years, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t intrigued by probiotics. Wherever I look, there are probiotic products—from capsules and powders to gummies and fizzy sodas—that claim to boost your immune system, fix your gut, and even improve your mood.   There are many different probiotic strains, but common ones include Lactobacillus,...
Canada Closes Border to Thru-Hikers on Pacific Crest Trail
  For decades, many of the thru-hikers who trek the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) have ended their journey just a few miles over the U.S.-Canada border. Yet theyll now have to be satisfied with ending their hike at the border — or trekking an extra 62 miles to the closest available border crossing.   Thats because the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) changed...
Pebble’s Budget Smartwatch Makes a Comeback, Thanks to Google
  Google just pushed reset on a cult smartwatch brand that died off in 2016.

The nascent brand offered a simple interface and efficient set of features, drawing in millions of dollars from thousands of users. Then, in...
