If you’re planning your first trip to explore the desert and/or the American Southwest or your 10th and you want to make it a more enjoyable, comfortable, safe experience, make sure to pack these five things.
If there’s one thing I love after a long hike on a hot day or when kicking it around the campfire in the evening it’s sparkling water. Sure, camp cocktails are great, but frankly, I don’t need alcohol to celebrate. If you feel the same and you can never keep enough cans of sparkling water in the house (or the cooler), then the Aerflo System Bottle is for you: a reusable water bottle that carbonates water at the touch of a button (OK, several touches).

There are so many amazing hikes out there it’s hard to know where to start or go to next. Luckily, with a little help from AllTrails, we can get an idea of which are the most hike-worthy trails out there. It may come as no surprise that #1 is also our favorite Utah hike: Navajo Loop and Queens Garden Trail in Bryce Canyon National Park (we talk about it in our Utah Mighty 5 road trip itinerary that you should definitely check out).
Think Breckenridge, Colorado is nothing more than a bougie ski town? Think again. Hundreds of miles of hiking trails carve through the high mountain terrain, often right from downtown! There are practically unlimited opportunities to head into wilderness areas or backcountry whether you’re looking for a family-friendly stroll or a challenging summit. We recently explored the area ourselves, but also tapped a few local friends and fellow outdoorists to share some of their picks for the best hikes in Breckenridge. So grab your boots (or hiking sandals) and get to it!
Rooftop cargo boxes are a classic roadtrip staple. Whether you have tons of camping gear and not enough space in the car or simply want to free up interior space for your cooler and snacks, they make carting extra gear easy and efficient. But choosing one from the tons of options out there can seem complicated, especially if you need crossbars, too. But this guide will help you figure out how to choose a vehicle rooftop storage box and which one is right for you.
When camping, especially boon docking or dispersed camping where you may or may not have access to showers and tiled bathrooms, cleanliness often takes a backseat (well, it does for us, anyway). But just because you’re sleeping in the dirt or planning long road trips with lots of exploratory stops at state or national parks doesn’t mean you have to neglect your clean routine. On the contrary, we’ve found and tested plenty of sustainable products that make it easy to stay healthy, happy, and squeaky clean no matter where you roam: backcountry, frontcountry or anywhere in between. So if you’re wondering how to stay clean while camping, here are our favorite tools for camp hygiene.
If you’re a frequent traveler, especially one who lugs around camera gear or tech equipment, you know the value of good luggage. And when I say “good,” I mean something that doesn’t just survive baggage claim but actually makes travel easier. That, friends, is the Peak Design Roller Pro Carry-On. We got our hands on this sleek, high-end carry-on before it officially launched, and after putting it through the paces on a few trips, we figured it was time to tell you all about it now that it’s officially available for purchase.
