How Bone Broth Helps to Optimize Your Post-Workout Recovery
  Last year, a friend of mine, who is a nutritionist, recommended that I try drinking bone broth to help optimize my performance. I didnt think too much of it at the time, as guzzling the stock made from animal bones didnt sound all that appetizing to me, especially before or after a big workout.   I tabled the advice and didn’t think...

Durable, Electric Daily Driver for Backcountry Skiers: BCA Float E2 Airbag Ski Backpacks
  Backcountry skiing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling are inherently dangerous sports. As someone who spends a lot of time enjoying these activities, lowering my risk exposure is incredibly important. In my perspective, reducing risk can be done in a few ways, including conservative decision-making and investing in safety equipment. That includes avalanche airbag ski backpacks.   In the past decade, avalanche airbags have...
Mount Everest Ban of Unsupported Climbers Won’t Affect 2025 Season
  Guide services for Mount Everest and other Nepalese 8,000m peaks have confirmed that new measures that make a Sherpa guide compulsory will not kick in before September at the earliest.

Try It to Buy It: Near Zero Launches Backpacking Gear Rental Program
  Its not the mileage, inclines, or creepy crawlies that can scare off new backpackers fastest — its the cost of gear. The hefty price tag associated with collecting backpacking equipment is a reasonable hesitation. Its also hard to know if you love overnight backpacking without the gear to try it first.   Thats why Near Zero launched its backpacking gear rental...
Unicorns Are Real: Atomic Maven Skis Review
  It’s a spring day at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort when I click into the Atomic Maven 94 CTI at the top of Bridger Gondola.
