Intercoms, music, directions and safety all in one extremely convenient package? That’s the Sena R1 Evo. And if you didn’t think you needed a smart helmet for cycling, you couldn’t be more wrong.
A portable fire pit and grill is a beautiful thing. But most are too small, too bulky when packed up, or just aren’t versatile enough to be worth your attention. But allow us to introduce you to the Wolf&Grizzly Fire Safe and Grill Kit: a perfectly portable and multi-functional fire pit and grill perfect for everything from backyard s’mores nights to backcountry adventures.
The Oru Inlet Kayak is a lightweight, packable, easy-to-use, origami kayak and we recently took it out for a spin. Check out this cool, innovative boat that makes adventure accessible to travelers, apartment-dwellers, and adventure enthusiasts alike.
We’re all about synthetic insulation here at Terradrift, which means we’re always on the lookout for more sustainable, packable, innovative options when it comes to the stuff that keeps us toasty in our puffy jackets and sleeping bags. And when it comes to innovation in the sustainable synthetic insulation game, PrimaLoft is at the forefront. We recently asked Senior Global Communications Manager Ken Fisk about the brand and what makes their newest products so dang sustainable.
Whether hiking, backpacking or traveling, water filtration and purification is important. But not all portable water filters do both. So we’re gonna compare three portable water purifiers and filters in one and explain why it’s important to do both (and simultaneously avoid dysentery and giardia…)
Camping just isn’t camping without a comfy place to park your tush around the campfire (also, it’s a heckuva lot better than sitting in the dirt). But not all camp chairs are created equal. So here are the best of the best, including camp chairs for every type of outdoorist, from lakeside loungers to backcountry explorers.
Snow, wind, sub-freezing temperatures…it’s enough to turn most people off to winter camping. Add to that the high prices of 4-season tents (also called expedition tents), and a whole new group of potential campers fall out of the running. But if you want to go camping or backpacking in the colder months and reap all the benefits of recreating during the fourth season (empty trails, peace and quiet, animal encounters…), we’ve got good news: there are plenty of tents for winter camping out there with price tags that don’t include commas.
The number one reason people don’t want to go camping in the winter? The cold. But don’t let the thermometer dictate when you get outside and play; learn about R-values and how to sleep warmer while winter backpacking with these insulated sleeping pads designed for the fourth season (and to keep your butt from freezing).
We love sustainable brands who care about the environment and we love introducing them with you. So we recently chatted with sustainable brand Picture Organic Clothing–a brand that designs dope outerwear for all your winter adventures (and more)–to find out about who they are, what makes them tick, and a bit about their most sustainable products and practices. Read on for our Q&A!
Winter is coming. And yeah, that oft-quoted phrase carries extra negative connotations this year (thanks, COVID). But the one thing it’s always mean: it’s gonna get cold. Even down here in Texas where, I kid you not, the high today is 44º. (Don’t laugh! That’s cold for those of us who can’t run far enough south to escape cold weather!) And though winter means more people will likely be hiding indoors this season, that’s certainly not necessary. In fact, for quiet, secluded trails and lots of vacancies at campgrounds, winter is a great time to get outside and beat the crowds. But the key to keeping the cold at bay during outdoor activities this season: our outdoor guide to layering.
