Description

  The Leki Makalu Cork Lite will help make your next outdoor adventure your best yet. The Makalu Cork Lite comes with the newly developed Aergon Air grip, made with genuine cork. Cork absorbs moisture from sweaty or wet hands, decreases vibration, and best conforms to the shape of your palms. Special hollow core technology combines lightweight construction with a supportive grip for unparalleled ergonomic comfort for your hands. 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.

Looking for a Third Place? Get Outside
  Two summers ago, I went shopping for a mountain bike group ride. I’d just moved to the Lake Tahoe area, and everywhere else I’d lived, races and group rides were how I’d made friends. I knew that if I could find a good weekly ride, I would find my new community.   The first ride I checked out had only three...
5 Songs That Changed Everything–The Tracks That Shaped Hazlett’s Path
  This summer, Outside Festival returns to Denver with an electric mix of music, adventure, and storytelling that’s poised to become a cultural touchstone for lovers of the outdoors and the artists who soundtrack their journeys. Held June 1–2, 2025, at Civic Center Park and the Denver Art Museum campus, the two-day event blends live music with panel discussions, immersive experiences,...
America’s First National Park City
  Chattanooga is not like other cities. While some towns can boast about being close to the outdoors, adventure is seamlessly woven through the fabric of this city, from the Tennessee River that wraps around downtown to the towering cliffs and lush mountains that rise from the edge of its neighborhoods.   “A lot of cities are gateways to the outdoors, but...
Trampled by Turtles’ Songs Were Born in the Wilds of Minnesota
  In 1941, Swiss engineer George de Mestral was hunting in the Alps with his dog, when he noticed burrs stuck to his jacket, pants, hat, and his pup. Being the egghead that he was, de Mestral examined the burrs under a microscope. He discovered their “stickiness” was due to tiny hooks and loops. This discovery dominated the next decade of...
The Outside Festival’s 2025 Film Lineup Is Its Best Yet
  One of the biggest highlights of the inaugural Outside Festival was its program of riveting adventure films. And this year promises to be even better. Curated in partnership with Mountainfilm, the lineup revolves around three core themes—joy, unity, and renewal—and captures some of the most gripping personalities and narratives in the outdoor world.   “It’s a cliché to say you’ll laugh...
Looking for Outdoorsy Friends? It Might Be Time to Volunteer
  Technology has rendered modern Americans both more connected—and more isolated—than any population of humans in history. In fact, some researchers have gone so far as to declare a loneliness epidemic in reference to our increasingly desperate need for IRL connection and community. That said, knowing that you need new friends and actually making them are two very different things. Building...
“Remaining Native” is for Runners—and for all Human Beings
  Remaining Native begins with a warning: This is a film that doesnt shy away from abuse, violence, or any of the other crimes that darken Native American history. But thats also the films strength: The feature-length documentary captures what it means to be a Native runner, balancing joys and tragedies in a way that will resonate with any athlete—and any...
Fight For Your Right to Run Club
  I live in New York City, where it is a commonly held belief that people walking four abreast on a public sidewalk deserve summary execution. I also run in New York City, often alone but just as often with run clubs—in other words, in groups of as few as four or as many as a hundred, and on the same...

Ewan McGregor Is Back on His Motorcycle for His Latest Adventure Series
  Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman are back on bikes for the fourth series in their epic motorcycle saga around the world, Long Way Home. Over twenty years ago they filmed their first series, Long Way Around (2004), which followed the duo, still in their thirties, riding from London to New York, what the Scottish actor calls “one of the highlights...
Mike de la Rocha Learned All His Greatest Lessons from the Ocean
  Mike de la Rocha is a difficult man to define. Hes an artist and an advocate. Hes the voice of a generation and a bit of a beach bum. Hes an award-winning change-maker and the co-founder of two businesses: a Pasadena coffee shop that provides work for formerly incarcerated people, and an internationally renowned creative agency that connects celebrities with...
As America’s Best Idea, Our National Parks Are Precious. Here’s Why.
  What’s your favorite national park? After two decades as a journalist with a specialty in outdoor recreation, that’s the question I am most often asked. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting most of the big ones. I’ve even led trips to Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Zion, and Denali as a professional guide, and, most recently, as a national park expert...
