Give Your Garden a Native Glow-Up
If you set a resolution for the new year, it may have involved a personal “glow up”—a positive transformation of self. You may be focused on eating healthier, getting fit, or quitting a bad habit. But have you considered a glow up for your garden? Our gardens may not be at the forefront of our minds during the winter months, but now is the time to start planning any additions or upgrades.
The LifeStraw water filter deserves a place in any emergency kit
Save Article Icon A bookmark Facebook Icon The letter F. Read in app Amazon A surefire way to ruin any camping trip is to contract a water-borne illness like Salmonella, E. coli, or even Giardia from not properly filtering your water. You should always have access to safe, clean drinking water when going outside and it should be one of your essential trip details when spending time in the backcountry.

When Should You Retire Your Climbing Gear?
JEREMY RELLOSA: Hey, everyone. It's Jeremy from Outside, and today we're going to talk about when to know it's time to retire your climbing gear. So first, we'll look at your rope, and the first few obvious signs you should look out for are in the rope's sheath, which is the outer material of the rope. You should check for inconsistencies like fraying, any flat spots, or any spots that feel particularly mushy, that don't feel like the rest of the rope.

The essential gear beginners need to start mountain biking
Thule Rail 4L Hip packs are a wonderful option for bringing small gear with you on your ride. They keep weight closer to your center of gravity and allow you to feel more balanced when hitting small jumps or rounding corners. The Thule Rail 4L is one of my favorites I've tested thanks to the smartly designed ReTrakt hose system. Other hip hydration bladder hoses have a tendency to come undone while you're riding or get in the way while peddling.

The best beginner climbing shoes
The Scarpa Origin climbing shoe is flat-lasted for all-day comfort and is at an affordable price so you can focus on your technique, not your bank account. When first getting into climbing, a flat shoe is going to feel the best and won't cause cramping after a few climbs. I recommend the Origin's for beginners thanks to the foot-friendly design and quick velcro closure system. Lace systems are more adjustable but velcro is easier to use so you can take your shoes off quickly after a climb.

This Tiny New Mexico Village Is a World-Class Climbing Area
It was March 2018, and I’d just moved to New Mexico from the frigid climes of Minnesota. I relocated for a job at Outside, my long-term relationship had just ended, and I was searching for something to tell me that I hadn’t just ripped my life up by the roots for nothing. So when a new colleague asked me to go bouldering one weekend, I was stoked. I had been climbing indoors for years, but this was an opportunity to test my outdoor skills and learn about my new home.

What It Took to Capture These Wild Adventure Photos
Photo: Krystle Wright Krystle Wright In 2010, Wright wanted an aerial photo of a BASE jumper leaping from Moab’s 400-foot Castleton Tower. She couldn’t afford to charter a helicopter, and the era of drones hadn’t yet begun. So she enlisted the help of a few friends and a local motorized-parachute pilot. Wright formulated a plan with jumpers Michael Tomchek and Mick Knurbin the night before and was in radio contact with them just prior to her takeoff.
