Patagonia Refugio Daypack 30L Review: The Perfect Pack for Outdoorsy Professionals
  Picture this: Your coworker invites you out for a scenic hike, but all you bring to the office is your briefcase, which can hardly fit a rain shell, let alone a Nalgene or hiking shoes. This is where the Patagonia Refugio 30L Daypack comes into play.   Both a laptop backpack and hiking daypack, this bag combines the functionality of a...
The 10 Most Fuel-Efficient 4×4/AWD Pickups of 2024
  We want it all from our pickup trucks. Maximum towing, maximum payload, maximum comfort, and, of course, maximum power.   But gas isnt cheap, and that means things are changing. Instead of getting the most of everything, were looking at getting the most for our dollars at the gas station. That means were looking at trucks with the lowest numbers —...
Extremely Rare White Bison Born in Yellowstone National Park
  If photography often boils down to being at the right place at the right time, then Erin Braaten hit the jackpot last week. The outdoor photographer was traveling in Yellowstone National Park last Tuesday when she caught an indelible moment: a white bison seeing the world for the first time.   Though Braaten missed the actual birth by just a few...
Rescue in Mazama After Eight Climbers Get Stranded in Snow
  A recent story about a search-and-rescue mission in Washington State highlights an important lesson for rock climbers. When attempting your first multi-pitch route on a big wall of rock, its best to keep your climbing party small.   According to the Methow Valley News, on Tuesday, May 21, a group of eight climbers from Illinois and Indiana attempted to ascend a...
This Is the Best Way to Start an Adventure Story
  You don’t have much time to grab people’s attention nowadays. This is one of the things I emphasize in my annual writing workshops, before we read through a handful of first sentences that do just that—grab our attention, make us sit up, engage, and dive into the rest of the story. One of them, which I have memorized: “We are...
The Teton Pass Collapse Photos are Truly Terrifying
  What started with a small crack in the road last Thursday developed into a full-blown disaster. A large section of Wyoming Highway 22—better known as the Teton Pass—collapsed on Friday, June 7, following a series of mudslides that culminated in what officials are calling a “catastrophic failure.” In the wake of the collapse, Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon issued a statewide...
Where to Buy Used Gear (The Best Sites to Shop & Save)
  Cost and access are the two most significant barriers to entry into the outdoors. Maybe you live in a small town that doesnt have a gear shop or any resources on where to buy a climbing harness. Perhaps you work a minimum-wage job but still want to get outside.   Heck, maybe your kids are growing fast, and kids apparel is...
‘Brush To Mountain’ Hunting Pants: Old-School Durability Meets Modern Tech Comfort
  First impressions are hard to overcome, and when I first opened the package containing Forlohs latest product, I scratched my head and thought, huh, they look like Fjallravens. And, well, the similarity in appearance to some of Scandinavias top pants is rather uncanny.   Forloh shares a lot with the Swedish icon. But its new Brush To Mountain Pro (BTM Pro)...
Reasons to Love Running in Chicago
  “Chicago is one of the best places in the world from May through October, with all its festivals and events,” says Dave Zimmer, “and the running scene is vibrant year-round.” The Chicago-area native should know. Zimmer and his wife, Lisa, spent the last 28 years opening Fleet Feet stores across the city. And though he admits, “you have to be...

  The competition continues on Ultimate Mountain Athlete, presented by the 2024 Toyota Tacoma, with the conclusion of the climbing stage. We see who had the top sends for podium spots, then move up to the alpine proving grounds of the Colorado high country.

The ‘World’s Toughest Row’ Meets the Wildest Story in Rowing
  When a pair of best friends in the U.K. decided to row across the Atlantic Ocean, its safe to say that expectations were low. For Charlotte Harris and Jessica Oliver, the idea of joining this grueling, 3,000-mile race across the worlds second-largest ocean just sounded like a fun challenge.   Harris and Oliver had no rowing experience, unlike many of the...
