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.

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.

Smear Butter on Big Terrain: Scott SEA 108 Review
  This was the best day of the season! The Sunday sun shined bright overhead after a massive storm blasted Colorado throughout the day before. Eighteen inches far surpassed the forecasted 7, and there were easily 2 feet of fresh coldsmoke powder (if you knew where to look).   And look we did: My friends and I barreled and slashed through deep...
I Worked Out Like 82-Year-Old Mick Jagger for a Week. Here’s What Happened.
  Mick Jagger is 82 years old and on the Rolling Stones “Hackney Diamonds” tour. The shows run somewhere between two and two-and-a-half hours long. Jagger is running, gyrating, singing, and dancing at each one. I couldn’t help but notice that Jagger is in incredible shape—for a person at any age. How does he do it? And what would it feel...
Small but Mighty Propane Firepit: Howl R1 First Look Review
  Propane firepits bring warmth and ambiance to camping without the work or risks of burning wood. Until recently, the Howl Campfires R4 was the king of firepits.

My Quest to Find the Owner of a Mysterious WWII Japanese Sword
  I. Two Sides of a Single-Edged Blade Franklin Park, Illinois, December 25, 2021 The sword was suspended in the basement rafters with a message from 1945 still secured to its fittings.

Yoshino Power B4000 SST Power Station Review: Swanky, Solid State, and Safer
  My partner and I were camping on a friend’s land when he rolled up and found us testing the Yoshino Power B4000 SST. Like us, he’s a connoisseur of portable power stations, and I could tell from his inquisitive grin that he was already plotting ways to convince us to part with it.   He was initially enamored because it doesn’t...

  Dear Sundog,    Last September, in California’s Malibu Creek State Park, a mountain lion pounced on a five-year-old child. The father managed to save his kid by fighting off the cat, and soon after, officials euthanized the cougar. Isn’t this immoral and outrageous?

  Planning spring break is high pressure. You only get a one-week respite from school or work, and the timing, late March or early April, makes it tough to find a location with consistently good weather.
