The back of the Aergon Air grip is rubberized providing maximum grip when going downhill.

  The Makalu Cork Lite provides the ultimate tool for comfortable and secure outings. The built-in positive angle supports your wrist for optimal guidance and placement of the pole. With its slim tube diameter, the Makalu Cork Lite has a weight of only 254 g (9 oz) per pole and is infinitely adjustable from 110 to 130 cm using the durable and time-tested Speed Lock Plus lever system. This collapsible and durable 3-section pole is crafted from HTS 6.5 aluminum, providing exceptional durability and dependability no matter where your next adventure takes you.

Big Agnes’ Lightest Sleeping Pad Yet: Zoom UL Review
  I was at the Douglas Springs trailhead in Saguaro National Park, playing a final round of Tetris with the items in my pack before I got on the trail. Since water access was limited on my multiday hike, I had to start with 8 L of water, which added a lot of base weight and took up a ton of...

Two Bear Canisters in One: REI Traverse Modular Bear Canister Review
  Id never seen a bear canister like the one before me at the REI Co-op Magnusson Lab in Seattle. The translucent orange container was sitting in a device that looked like a guillotine, and I watched as it pressed a steel bears tooth down into the plastic exterior. Two of REIs lab researchers stood quietly beside me, watching as the...

Wind-Resistant, Infrared Stove Thrives in Harsh Conditions: Primus Ulti Stove 1.0 Review
  The thought of coffee rustled me from my sleeping bag, as it does most mornings.I could hear the wind howling against my truck. Bleary-eyed, I peeked out the window and saw our camp chairs blown over, and my friends tent flapping in the late September breeze. It was a blustery fall day. Good thing I had a wind-resistant camping stove,...
Half the Weight With Greater Space: Marmot Limelight Ultralight 3P Review
  Just as I finished setting up the Marmot Limelight Ultralight 3P tent and got snuggled in my sleeping bag, it began to snow at my campsite in Bryce Canyon National Park.

Adrian Ballinger Argues for Sweeping Change on Everest: Nepal-Side Summits Are Becoming ‘Unethical’
  For decades, the southern face of Mount Everest has been the preferred route to the worlds highest summit. The Nepalese government, which controls this side of the mountain, reliably kept it open to foreign climbers.
