  Ultralight wide-cut mummy bag; 30° F

  If you are claustrophobic or just need a little more room than the average backpacker, it can be very hard to find an ultralight sleeping bag that isn't shaped like a sarcophagus. With that in mind, Western Mountaineering designed the MegaLite, a wide mummy sleeping bag that offers room to move but retains a heat-efficient silhouette; a generous 64 inches of shoulder girth lets the larger folks enjoy the weight and volume savings of the ExtremeLite series. Continuous baffles allow you to regulate the temperature of the bag by shifting the down on top of you in colder temps or underneath you when things warm up. A full-length zipper, passive draft collar, and insulated draft tube round out the features on this popular bag.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the MegaLite is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

Later that day, another team successfully reached the summit using the fixed ropes, leading to accusations that Purja had...
Pret Lyric X2 Ski Helmet Review: Comfort, Breathability, and Odor-Fighting Tech
  A ski and snowboard helmet with double the antimicrobial tech means this safety accessory should endure multiple seasons. No matter how much you like hike-to terrain or how much you road trip to get to the chair lift, you likely wont need a snow helmet replacement due to grunginess. Two technologies are incorporated into the foam and the liner of...
Mainstreaming EVs One Compact SUV at a Time: 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV Review
  Cruising down a riverfront boulevard east of Detroit, I set one-pedal drive to high and lift my right foot. Suddenly, my head flings forward and the Equinox quickly rolls to a stop about 100 feet ahead of the stoplight I intended to reach.   At what feels like more than 0.4G of deceleration, Chevrolet manages to extract energy from movement and...

  El Matador is a 5.10d classic endurance stemming route on Devils Tower. Many trad climbers find it challenging, but imagine if you headed up without using your eyes.

2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally Review: Big Smiles in Sloppy Conditions
  The windshield wipers are slapping as hard as a happy Labrador retriever’s tail. Still, I can barely see through the muck and mud on my windshield as I slide sideways around a corner at the Dirtfish Rally School.   It’s a good thing I’m driving the 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally edition. That’s the latest version of the Detroit automaker’s all-electric...
The Backpacking Luxury Item We Can’t Leave Behind: REI Co-op Flexlite Air Chair Review
  I get it. Sometimes, it’s hard to justify packing a camp chair on a backpacking trip. It seems like a luxury item we might not have space for, choosing to sit uncomfortably on a slanting log, awkward boulder, or in the dirt hunched over our camp stove. But these days, it becomes easier and easier to justify when a chair...

Big Innovation, Compact Package: Evolution Outdoors Ibex Hinge Release Review
  Archery hunting with a hinge-style release aid isn’t anything new, but the popularity of doing so is definitely on the rise. Hinges don’t fail and provide nice, clean shots time and time again.   With that said, hinge releases have been at a bit of a standstill in terms of innovation and often fall short in terms of practicality for hunting...
14 Years Old and Still the King of Coolers: YETI Tundra 45 Review
  If you’re looking for the best-performing, mid-sized cooler on the market, you can’t go wrong with the Tundra 45 ($325) from YETI.

This Belgian Climber Reached the Top of Denali by Boat, Bike, and Foot
  One of the first ascents of 20,310-foot Denali in 2024 was completed in truly eccentric style.   When a Belgian climber named Jelle Veyt reached the summit on May 12, he completed a human-powered trek that had begun 18 months earlier. Veyt left his home in Belgium during the first week of October, 2022, and rode his bicycle to coastal France,...
