　　When I first put on the prAna Chakara 7/8 Legging, I didnt expect much. I thought itd be an average pair of exercise leggings for women.

　　Ive lived in the third coldest valley in the lower 48 for more than 10 years. While searching for the best womens winter running tights, I cant say Ive gotten used to that piece of mountain life: -30 is still bone-chilling. The snow and chilly wind stick around through spring, well into May. True summer — without longstanding freezing temps...

　　Apologies to anyone who encountered me on the Pacific Crest Trail in July 2021, rabidly racing in circles through the wondrous Marble Valley in the northernmost reaches of California. Indeed, had you been peering down from Marble Rim, which juts from the brilliant forest like some rough-hewn countertop slab, and watched me sprint around the meadow below, you would have...

　　The first time I went to a clothing-optional hot spring in Colorado, I was shocked. It was afternoon on a super-sunny spring day, and strangers sitting in the pool around me were talking about politics. While naked. I couldn’t believe how comfortable all the nude soakers seemed, or that I was one of very few opting to stay covered. 　　That...

　　Our caravan of five Polaris Ranger side-by-sides had to cross a bridge over a creek where there was a lone man fishing, enjoying the isolation and peace of the backcountry in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I felt horrible, as I had done for decades when trying to coexist with other outdoor enthusiasts while enjoying off-road motorsports. 　　But this encounter...
