Our squad of honorary backcountry chefs has collectively tested hundreds of the best backpacking stoves, whipping up meals in the most remote locations imaginable and in all sorts of conditions. The testers for this guide have thru-hiked the Triple Crown of long trails, and we’ve been putting new models to the test for years when dialing in the selection for this guide. The primary factors we looked at were weight, packed size, boil time, and simmering abilities. Secondarily, we considered fuel efficiency, performance in wind and cold, and additional stove features. While there isn’t a single backpacking stove that’s best…

Sunglasses are one of the most critical pieces of equipment I use while fishing. They are my underwater eyes. If I make it to a boat ramp and realize I forgot my sunglasses, I’ll drive all the way back home to get them. For me, forgetting my shades is the same as forgetting my rods. This spring, I’ve been relying on Bajío Zapata sunglasses. Even though I heavily emphasize details in sunglasses, I don’t think other anglers do. Many people get them wrong and end up with cool-looking lenses or ones designed for saltwater environments. They think a polarized lens…

SOF Week 25 – Qore Performance ICEFLASK K9 Holster Qore Performance unveiled their new ICEFLASK K9 Holster. Frozen, it offers all of the same advantages to our K9 companions that the ICEFLASK does for humans: thermoregulation which prevents heat injuries and boosts performance. They’ve developed a K9 harness which allows the handler to quickly and easily don or doff the ICEFLASK holsters to the dog.

Just head to the Baja Peninsula. The second-longest peninsula in the world, it extends nearly 800 miles, with the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Gulf of California (or Sea of Cortez) to the east. Geologically speaking, volcanic activity sheared off land from North America to create the peninsula and the gulf. These are just some of the notes from the short film Finding the Heart of Baja, created…

The mimeographed flyer was printed on green paper and illustrated second- and third-generation, dark-contrast, cut-and-paste photocopies of various firearms for sale by McGee Industries of Mississippi. I was 15 years old at the time, and in the 48 years since, I have never seen a shoddier example of marketing than that flyer, but at the time, it was my “golden ticket.” A cap-and-ball, percussion, steel-frame, .44-caliber reproduction of the Colt 1860 Army revolver made by SILE Co. was only $77, and I was sure I could not live without it. I literally sat on the doorstep for days waiting for…

By Joe Woolley Hearing protection is critically important for firearms enthusiasts. In today’s article, author Joe Woolley offers his views on the Dead Air Sandman S sound suppressor. Suitable for hunting, tactical and recreational use, the suppressor offers a way to tame muzzle blast as well as protect your ears in the field. The late Colonel Jeff Cooper promulgated four rules of firearms safety, so succinct and specific that they are taught in most of the firearms classes you or I are likely to attend. Those are, basically: Treat all guns as if they are loaded Never point a gun…

As the PDK of the Porsche Cayman GT4 RS downshifts, I nose into a mid-speed sweeping left at maximum lateral Gs. As I do, the rear end swings out. I countersteer and dab the throttle to keep things steady and dance through the corner with stress-free poise. But these sliding tires aren’t a set of track day Michelins. Rather, they’re the new Kumho Ecsta Sport S holding on to the track and keeping the Porsche on pavement. Leaving the frozen Michigan north behind, I headed to Atlanta Motorsports Park, a private racetrack, and spent the afternoon testing three new tires…
