It was while standing near the water hookups outside a Love’s Travel Stop in Alabama, as the contents of our class A vehicle’s putrid blackwater tank splurted and slurried all over the ground at my feet, that I realized owning an RV might not be for me. It was the…

Backpackers talk all day long about weight savings, but for me, space savings are equally vital. Packs have limited capacity, and the less real estate each item takes up, the better. Next to a sleeping bag, my sleeping pad consistently took up the most room in my pack, that is,…

This year’s legislative session has drawn to a close in Alabama, and lawmakers left the state capitol without passing a bill that would have established a tax-free “holiday” on the sale of firearms, ammunition, and related accessories.  As I covered back in February, HB 360…

2026 hasn’t been a great year for gun control. Oh, they might have gotten some state laws passed, true, but they’ve also seen something far worse than just looking at a legislative vote. In fact, I now have to wonder just what kind of people support gun control in…

Ski poles are easy to overlook — until you find a pair that you love. The MountainFlow Corkpro ski poles fall squarely into that category. After close to 2 years of use and somewhere between 60 and 70 ski days, they’ve become my default in-bounds poles. It’s not because they’re…

It’s time to start cooking! Or at least that’s the feeling I get from this week’s lineup of extra-hot new gear releases. We have a high-tech Swiss-made camping stove, new wood-fired grills from Traeger, a fillet collection from Case Knives, and even a cookbook showcasing recipes inspired by America’s 63…

If you love hiking and weekend backpacking trips, you’ve probably felt the urge to take on a thru-hike. These multi-day adventures take hikers deep into wild, scenic places, offering a true escape into nature. They can also be mentally and physically challenging, and require more planning and logistical coordination than…

A few days ago, I wrote about a piece that argued that gun rights are imaginary because one person doesn’t make a militia, so the right to keep and bear arms must be a collective right. It was just high-minded sounding enough that the gullible might buy it, but…

Burdett Sisler, one of the world’s oldest World War II veterans, has died, just days shy of his 111th birthday. Sisler, who died last week at 110, was believed to be Canada’s oldest living man. His son, Norman, reported his father’s death, saying he was surrounded by family when he died.…

A year ago, a student brought two firearms onto the campus of Florida State University and opened fire. It wasn’t as bad of an event as Parkland, but it was bad enough to spur the legislature into action, just like Parkland. Only this time, they…
