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.

‘It’s a Gem’ on a Budget: Johnny Morris Platinum Signature Spinning Reel Review
  Throughout my life, Ive gone back and forth on purchasing store-branded products. Back when I was in high school, flipping burgers to fund my outdoor pursuits, I purchased a lot of private-label items like the Johnny Morris Platinum Signature Spinning Reel because they were cheaper than everything else.   Then, I became a professional guide and turned into a gear snob....
The Best Bike Locks of 2025
  A quality bike lock is the best investment you can make to protect your bike from theft, but like so many pieces of outdoor gear, there’s seldom one “best” item, making it tough to know what to purchase. Choosing the right lock depends on several factors, including where you park, how long you plan to leave your bike unattended, and...
The 7 Most Beautiful Coastal Hikes in the U.S.
  Think the beach is just for lounging? Think again. I found seven gorgeous hikes that trace the coast, from quiet beach walks to heart-pounding cliff treks. Some of these trails are multi-day affairs, giving you the chance to disconnect for extended periods of time, while others are quick day hikes designed to get you away from the summer crowds. Pack...

  Mount Katahdin in Maine is most famous for being the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail, but this week, the area became a tragic focal point.

After 3 days of searching, both bodies have been found, according to authorities with Baxter State Park,...
Pop-Up Penthouse: James Baroud Odyssey RTT Review
  The James Baroud Odyssey is one of the best-designed, highest-quality rooftop tents you can buy. If you’re a camper who plans to spend a lot of nights in your RTT in a range of weather, this tent is worth the price.   Sometimes it isnt obvious why one Rooftop tent costs twice as much as another. Ive tested and reviewed RTTs...

  The official end of the 2025 springtime climbing season on Mount Everest fell on Friday, May 29.

‘Ultra 200X’ Makes This Pack Ultralight, Tougher Than Dyneema: Durston Kakwa 55 Review
  It was nearing the end of our third day on the Colorado Trail outside of Molas Pass, and unfortunately, we were getting pummeled with rain. We decided to stop just before treeline in case the storm persisted overnight to quickly set up camp. Carrying ultralight backpacking kit typically means suffering through trials like this: maybe its a thin foam pad...
‘Active-ism’ Trips Turn Paying Guests Into Park Activists
  Many outdoor advocacy groups see Americas national parks as facing a political crisis. DOGE and President Trumps administration have openly targeted the National Park Service (NPS) with sweeping layoffs, budget cuts, office lease terminations, renewed mining leases, ending diversity-focused internship programs, and more.   Thats why Intrepid Travel just launched its new Active-ism trips. On June 3, the travel company announced...

Bucket-List Fly Fishing: Chasing Everglade Snook & Tarpon With the Fam
  Floridas Everglades are a vast and untamed natural place. Alligators patrol the water. Flamingos soar across the sky. Snakes hang like vines from mangrove branches.

For Free Fly Ambassador and angler, Eli Lorg, and his two children, the Everglades are a bucket list...
The Beer Drinker’s Guide to Yosemite
  Yosemite National Park is many things, but subtle ain’t one of them. This gem of a park straddling the crest of California’s Sierra Nevada hits you over the head with its scenic grandeur. Yosemite’s towering granite domes, thousand-foot-tall waterfalls, wildflower-dotted meadows, and skyscraping sequoias are the stuff of national park dreams.
