Description

  Dedicated, durable and designed for ice cragging, mixed ascents and cold-weather expeditions, the Mission 45 is Black Diamond's toughest alpine pack. Featuring an updated BD X-rip 420d fabric with UTS™ coating, this pack is now ultra-durable to withstand season after season of mountain abuse.

  The Mission also provides a balanced carry thanks to its SwingArm shoulder straps, and fully strippable waistbelt, lid and frame-sheet. The new custom metal dogbone ice tool attachment provides secure attachment for technical ice tools and mountaineering axes while a front crampon pouch and a tuck-away rope strap secure gear to the outside.

The Best Electric Chainsaws of 2024
  Electric chainsaws are better than gas chainsaws. That may feel like a controversial statement, but cordless electric saws eliminate most of the issues that make gas saws a pain.   They seriously reduce emissions by using electricity instead of oil and gas. And they’re cheaper to run — most don’t need maintenance beyond an occasional chain sharpening.   Electric chainsaws also eliminate...
The Best Driving Sunglasses of 2024
  There’s nothing better than flying down the road on a clear, sunny day, feeling the engine hum, and bobbing your head to your favorite tunes. But there’s no worse feeling than squinting into the sun while you do it, struggling to see clearly through the relentless glare.   A good pair of driving sunglasses leaves you free to enjoy your drive...
Get a Taste of Texas Culture in San Antonio
  Some of the best travel experiences revolve around culture—tasting it, hearing it, seeing it, immersing yourself in it. That’s certainly true in Texas, and in particular San Antonio, where you’ll discover a tapestry of history, local foods, art, nightlife, and more.

Resistance Climbing - Existence is Resistance
I didn't watch Resistance Climbing when it first came out, which is perhaps surprising, as it married what have been two of the biggest influences in my life over the past six or seven years, Palestine and climbing. At the end of February 2019, I was roughly a year and a half into a PhD looking at literary representations of...

How to Have Fun at a Festival Without Trashing the Planet
  Festivals, concerts, sports games, and all kinds of other summer events are an undeniable blast, and I highly recommend them. After all, what’s not to love? Great music in the great outdoors, tasty food, live art installations, and a groovy community vibe.

Tune M1 Pop-Top Truck Camper Review: Winter Storm Tested
  The rain turned to snow just as I pulled into the campsite. It was already dusk, and the dark sky and heavy snowflakes instilled a sense of urgency as I backed into a parking space and turned off the pickup.   I opened the door and put up my hood against the wintery wind, buffeting the Tune Outdoor M1 camper bolted...
SRAM Red Road Groupset: Leaked, Spied, but Finally Here
  Today, SRAM officially released information about the new SRAM Red groupset. Road cycling enthusiasts have long awaited this announcement after weeks of media teases. The Chicago-based brand released the outgoing Red components in 2019, so it was time.   Upon studying the official press kit, two significant things stand out. The shift-brake lever and hood assembly drastically differ, and SRAM put...
