Cap PuckhaberMost hikers make a dangerous mistake by trusting their iPhone for SOS. Because I’ve seen phones fail in real rainstorms, I carry a dedicated messenger.
Cap Puckhaber breaks down why he uses the Garmin inReach over a smartphone.

Lee PetersenLate August above Gakona Glacier during a solo backpacking trip in the Eastern Alaska Range in 2023.
From the western marginal moraine, the glacier’s movement is visible in looping moraines, while active icefalls continue to feed the upper basin.

scholar_farmer@beckett Yeah, I typically invite the fam, and then just make my plans with or without them, as things unfold. I tend to pack a 2-person tent to leave party size ambiguous to passers-by...

May 28, 1983: Eventually I made it to the top of a knob with no views and began a descent alongside a barbed-wire fence into a sag.

September 21, 1983: The Appalachian Trail climbed a very steep half-mile to the summit of the South Horn, one of a pair of open, rocky crags rising above the north shore of the pond (as you might guess, the other is called North Horn). Angry winds were shrieking past South Horn’s summit, and the haze was intensifying.

kradtourNeues Land, eine neue Art von Fahrzeug / Transportmittel.
Hier in Kambodscha gibt es viele dieser überdimensionierten Motorradanhänger. Das Motorrad wird für die Last entsprechend angepasst. Speichen aus Baustahl, zusätzliche Federn und nasse Lumpen um den Zylinder als Unterstützung der Luftkühlung (Verdunstungskälte). Nur die Bremsen werden nicht aufgerüstet.

August 19, 1983: As I approached Greylock’s summit, I passed through an alpine forest — stunted, twisted shrubs of dwarf fir and spruce. I had been making such good time I was able to dawdle along and enjoy the New England experience as well as the extensive views at the end.

June 28, 1983: After seven miles of virtually continuous climbing, I finally began a long descent from Bluff Mountain into the Pedlar River Valley. At a junction of woods roads a mile-and-a-half later, the AT turned right from the dirt track it had been following down the crest of Bluff Mountain and onto another.

Brian DavisThe big trip of 2025 was to Olympic National Park. I had a 75 mile loop planned starting in the Grand Valley, but after two nights in the high country I was concerned about the amount of wildfire smoke blowing out of the south and decided to change plans. Hiked out and headed for Third Beach instead. It was an amazing trip. I saw bears, swam in alpine lakes, enjoyed sunrise in the mountains, wandered the beach, and slept beside the ocean. The Olympics are easily one of my favorite places on earth.
