  Full-featured and livable 4-season mountaineering fortress

  A strong, four-season refuge for two mountaineers, the MSR Remote 2 tent offers the protection you need with the livability that keeps you levelheaded for days or weeks in the harsh alpine. Built to withstand fierce winds and heavy snow loads, the double-wall tent features a sturdy central-support frame and nearly indestructible Easton® Syclone™ poles. New rainfly vents reduce condensation, and snow flaps seal out spindrift.

Remote in Chamonix
  MSR athlete Eric Larsen took our Remote series tent to the heart of Chamonixs backcountry, and was eager to share his professional insight.      I have literally spent years of my life in a tent on one adventure or another. Ive spent so much time in tents that they feel like home to me. On an expedition, a tent is...
Great Climbs & Worthy Causes: Rock Climbing in Eastern Europe
  Nina and Jeremys Big Idea Summer, 2020   Beranger, Savoie, France   The choice of vehicle wasn’t simple. It had to be more than a camper van—reliable off-road and in remote parts of the world, and tough enough to transport a climbing wall (yes, you read that right), all of our rock-climbing gear, photography equipment, and oh yeah, also be a small...
Scouting for Fish Farms in the Great Bear Rainforest
  Words and photos By Dustin Silvey, Ph.D   The sun beat down on our adventure team. The other kayak had pulled off a kilometer ahead in the shade of a rock to wait. As we caught up, movement in the water signaled action—on the other side of the rock, a pod of dolphins was hunting our bait ball.   We paddled over...
Attempting the Seven Summits: An Aconcagua Trip Report
     After climbing the six great north faces of the Alps, I was on the lookout for my next big project. The Seven Summits is the collective name for the seven largest mountains, one on each continent—I decided this would be a good goal. More remote and higher altitude but less technical than the six north faces, the Seven would...
Paring it Down to the Essentials: A Guide’s Gear for a Three
  As a guide with the American Alpine Institute on Mt. Baker, I often end up working with clients who try to bring all the appropriate gear but end up bringing just a tad more than necessary. In this post, I will talk about the gear I bring with me on a 3-Day Baker Skills and Climb trip and how I...
Packrafting the Flathead River in Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness
  Packrafting opened up a world of adventure for me. Being from the desert, the idea of hauling a raft deep into the wilderness was fairly novel. But when photographer Jacob Moon and his wife Natasha invited me to go packrafting on the South Fork of the Flathead, one of the world’s premier rivers, I couldn’t say no.      Photo by...
North of 60: Three Incredible Hikes in the Yukon Territory
  Story and Images by Joe Yelverton Story and Images by Joe Yelverton   The Sprinter van is packed, travel mug’s full of coffee, playlist is ready.

How to Choose Ultralight Backpacking Gear (Tips & Tricks from a Thru
  When I started planning my 2015 Pacific Crest Trail thru-hike, I knew I wanted ultralight backpacking gear. I wasn’t aiming for sub-10 pounds or any particular ‘goal weight’, but I wanted to make intentional gear choices that kept my base weight low without going completely barebones. (Base weight is the total weight of your pack, fully loaded, not including anything...
The Carretera Austral by Bicycle: A Wild Ride through Chilean Patagonia

The very word “Patagonia” stirs up images of grand mountains, thick forests, shimmering lakes and icy glaciers interspersed with a sparse population and...

  Story by Hilaree Nelson   Photos by Nick Kalisz, Dutch Simpson and The North Face. All rights reserved.   I’m always in awe of the things I obsess over, especially when the lens is through hindsight. Mostly because in the moment, when the idea first takes hold, when the dreams start waking me up at night, when the secret planning starts to form...
Mountain Running in the Sierra Nevada
  One of the best parts of mountain running is when you get to walk. I’m not calling mountain running a gentle stroll, but generally, you’re not full-on, maxed-out sprinting hour after hour up an enormous rock pile. The running part is great, but the main draw is that rock pile and the ones around it. Just being, and moving, in...
Shoulder Season Bikepacking in Europe
  Spring and autumn should not be ignored for cycle travel.
