The dynamic FreeFloat suspension, full adjustability, breathable backpanel, and lightweight materials, make the Zulu 55 a king of overnight trips

  Precise Fit Adjustable Torso

  With the ability to fit exactly to your back the adjustable torso length provides 3.5” of adjustment allowing for a custom fit without compromising support.

  Open-air Backpanel

  Full-length tensioned mesh creates space between your back and the pack to allow for heat to escape and air to flow freely to cool you down.

The Best Rooftop Cargo Boxes of 2024
  For those who love adventures in nature, the gear required to have a good time in various environments adds up pretty fast. A rooftop cargo box helps organize everything well and increases the comfort and space inside your vehicle while at the same time protecting the interior.   It’s nice to be able to stash damp, smelly, or sharp items up...
Put These Beautiful National Monuments on Your Must-See List
  What is a national monument, anyway? That’s what I kept asking myself as I rode a mountain bike down a rocky trail on sedimentary layers in the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument. I was rapidly approaching a lower point on the northern rim of the canyon, which is more than a mile deep at some sections. I stopped 2,000 feet above...
California’s Lost Coast Trail Permits Just Tripled in Price
  Starting this fall, backpackers will have to pay a per-visitor fee to overnight along California’s famous Lost Coast Trail. For many hikers, this will be triple the current cost. The update is part of a new Bureau of Land Management (BLM) plan to address crowding and protect high-traffic trails from environmental impacts.   The Lost Coast Trail traces 53 miles of...

10 Last-Minute Ways to Spoil Yoga Moms on Mother’s Day
  As a new mom, I found my first Mother’s Day to be a letdown.   I had naively thought that it would be a day where all my anxieties and responsibilities would fall away.

Climbing Pants for Curvy Women: Funding Soars for Pangoo
  It didnt take long for Sara Chen to realize she was onto something. Her business idea —to make flattering pants for women with curves — hatched from a gym conversation. She and a climbing partner were simply reflecting on the lack of options for women who dont have the body shape of skinny climber dudes (like the one writing this)....
The 10 Best Summit Hikes in Colorado
  Trying to narrow down a list of the best summit hikes in Colorado makes my palms sweat. It’s almost harder than hiking the peaks themselves. Ive been exploring Colorados mountains for over 25 years now and have written six mountain hiking guidebooks, and I still have difficulty picking out my favorites. There are just that many good mountains.   My favorite...
I Thought Motorcycles Didn’t Belong In the Wilderness. I Was Wrong.
  I was gunning it toward Split Mountain in the Sierra Nevada and my Subaru was begging for mercy. The “road” to the trailhead was like the surface of the moon, rife with ditches, potholes, and boulders techy enough to have a V-grade. The sunglasses hanging from a strap on my rearview mirror swung wildly, smacking me in the face as...
LifeStraw Launches Slimmest Water Filtration Yet: ‘Sip’ Straw First Look
  Its rather amazing what modern water filtration and purification can do. Ive seen —and tried! — the hallmark demonstration of drinking water directly from tepid, brackish pond water with no ill effects. And still, I cant quite believe it.   But beyond the novelty, companies like LifeStraw, MSR, and Sawyer have had massive public health impacts where clean water is a...

The 16 Best Kit Cars: Make Your DIY Automotive Dreams Reality
  If you’re an automotive enthusiast, you probably love supercars and other rare or unique models. But few of us can afford to actually buy (and run) such ultra-exclusive über-rides.
