Climbing: "... a religion..."
It takes a special breed of human being to climb El Capitan
in Yosemite Park, but it takes a really special breed to do that AND photograph
their peers.
RESPECT.
Camping Checklist

We know you love lists! Getting your camping gear together
is a "must-list" situation, so we've made it a tad easier on you to
start with this basic camping checklist. Of course, depending on your
activities, location and weather, you will want to add your own special items.
Oh yeah, and don't forget the dog! ; )
How to Acclimate Yourself for a High Altitude Vacation
It’s that time of year to plan your ski trip to the
mountains or maybe it’s summer and you’re planning on going to the Mountains
for hiking and golfing. Many people don’t consider that higher elevations are
different on their body then at lower elevations, and when they first get to
the higher altitudes, they start to feel lightheaded and realize they have to
take it easy and let their bodies acclimate to the new elevations.
Backcountry Weather: Be Prepared!
Knowing how to respond to changing weather conditions can be important to backpackers and hikers. Weather patterns can quickly change in the backcountry, which is why hikers and backpackers need to be prepared. This includes not only having the appropriate gear, but also the right mindset for constantly changing weather.

Hovercraft: Not Just Science Fiction Anymore

Hovercraft: A Fisherman and Hunter's Secret Weapon!The best fishing tackle in the world is of little value if you persist in fishing areas where fish stocks are depleted; the dream catch is probably living someplace out of reach. Most anglers use conventional boats; very few consider alternative forms of transport.
LIVING OFF THE GRID
Living "off the grid" is usually the choice of the hardened survivalist, the mountain man and perhaps the odd fugitive running from bounty hunters. But more and more Americans are now opting to disconnect from the grid — i.e., government, electric and other utility services — which delivers increasingly expensive fossil-fuel-based power and is, as millions in the Northeast learned during the 2003 blackout, anything but infallible. In 2006, Home Power magazine estimated that more than 180,000 U.S. homes were supplying their own power.
