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.

Fast, Fun, Limited Adventure: Can-Am Origin Electric Motorcycle First Look Review
  I am excited by the promise of electric dirt bikes. Silently ripping through the woods or around a motocross track (in the middle of town!) without the noise and exhaust of internal combustion engines would eliminate many negatives associated with powersports. The heaps of torque common in electric powerplants also check the plus box.   Being an older rider, I cringe...
Ahead of the Pack: Lone Wolf Custom Gear D’Acquisto Series .5 Hang-On Treestand Review
  Tree saddles are a convenient and lightweight way to hang-and-hunt for deer hunters. While they’re mostly comfortable, they still sacrifice a level of comfort and stability compared to hang-on treestands.   In fact, when you compare them to lightweight treestands, saddles don’t offer much more than the hide-behind-the-tree claim to fame, but even this can be remedied if you know how...
Christopher Ward ‘Desk Diver’ Watch Will Never Scuba, but May Restore Faith in Humanity
  Dive watches are an odd category of equipment. In the modern era, theyre pretty much obsolete for scuba diving. Sure, theyll still do what they always did and allow you to manually calculate decompression stops. But realistically, divers just dont use them anymore. Computers are better, safer, and easier.   But that doesnt stop watch enthusiasts from placing them on a...
A Price Worth Paying to Keep Your Feet Happy in the Field: Tread Labs Insoles Review
  Insoles were never something that were on my radar as a young hunter. I mean, why buy insoles when boots already come with them, right? These were my thoughts until I ran into a pair of boots that came with an insole that literally rubbed my foot raw.   Since then, I’ve tried my fair share of aftermarket insoles, with some...

Is Duracell’s $30 Lantern Any Good? I Took It Camping to Find Out
  Its absolutely pitch black when I push the button. Surprise! I exclaim as a jolt of white light floods the inside of the wall tent. Two of my buddies grumble and roll away from the light — 4:30 a.m. comes early in elk hunting camp.   I click the button on the Duracell 2000 Lumen Tri-Power Lantern a couple more times,...
Sideways Suitcase Breezes Through Airports: Roverlund ‘Ready-to-Roll’ Carry-On Review
  As I zipped through the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (Terminal 2), I gleefully spun the hard-sided Roverlund Ready-to-Roll bag down the concourse. Like a figure skater linking triple lutzes to double axels, I kept twirling and whirling the bag ahead of me, its neon-yellow skateboard wheels silently carving up the linoleum.   Nimble had never been a criteria I considered when...
Hike Colombia’s Hidden Ancient Ruins: Guide to the Ciudad Perdida Trek
  “Let’s take the scenic route,” our guide announced to the group. We had only been on the trail to the Ciudad Perdida for about an hour, and we were already veering off course. He led us to a special swimming spot.   I was already drenched in sweat by the tropical forest of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the highest...

Watch How Alex Honnold Becomes a Weekend Warrior in Yosemite
  Alex Honnold linked up with another weekend warrior, Connor Herson. Herson is a full-time electrical engineering student at Stanford and had just finished his semester final exams.   Although Honnold and Herson had to adhere to a normal weekend schedule, both are far from normal rock climbers. Honnold needs no introduction, but Herson also has serious rock-climbing roots. Herson was born...
