Sweaters are back. Sure, fleece has been the king of mid-layers for decades, dominating the key mid-layer space of adventurous wardrobes, but in recent years old school knitwear, made mostly from natural fibers, is raging back into fashion. Personally, I’ve become absolutely sweater-obsessed in the last couple of years and can’t remember the last time I chose a fleece over...

　　I should be wrecked. 　　It’s my first full day in South Africa after a brutal 33-hour journey from my home in Bend, Oregon. I woke at 3:15 A.M. to catch the first of three flights to Johannesburg, crossed nine time zones in economy class, and finally fell into bed at 9 P.M. Typically, my jet lag for such a long-haul...

　　As you’re walking the shoreline collecting seashells, with the cool waves hitting your feet, you want a shoe that can stand up to the sand, salt, and water. Sometimes, that quick walk turns into a few miles of walking as you keep filling your pockets and taking in the sunshine vibes. 　　Your feet shouldn’t pay the price for this extended...

　　There are very few electric motocross or trail bikes currently in production. The king of the electric hill is the Stark Varg, which closely mimics gas dirt bikes in size and performance (in some aspects, it outperforms 450cc dirt bikes). But for many, this is too much power, size, and weight, adding to the already tall barriers to entry. Dust...

　　I was ready to love the new OneWheel Pint S. 　　Though I typically gravitate toward non-electric transportation, theres an undeniable attraction to these hoverboard-like creations. As the EV marketplace has grown crowded with electrified scooters, bikes, and skateboards, OneWheel has earned —and maintained —a loyal following. 　　And thats despite ongoing controversy over the relative safety of these devices.

　　While visiting the lodge at Idaho’s Sun Valley Resort a few years ago, Colombian-American photographer Sofía Jaramillo noticed something disconcerting about the pictures lining the walls. In the images, which date back to the ski hill’s opening in 1936, nearly everyone was white. “That’s when I got the idea—how cool would it be to re-create these, except centering people of...

　　When Nick Russell and Jerry Mark heard Hillary Nelson recount the story of making her first descent on Indias Papsura (aka the Peak of Evil), they were immediately intrigued.
