Keen has built a reputation for creating comfortable and versatile shoes for hiking, paddling, cycling, and more. But their most comfortable shoes of all are reserved for the end of the day, when you're finished playing on the trail, and you're ready to kick back, take it easy, and lounge around a bit. When that moment comes, you'll want to slip your feet into a pair of Howser Wool slippers . Billed as a "sleeping bag for your feet," the Howser Wools are lined with super-soft microfleece that is both ...

Alright. After the team's first couple of days a rest day was in order. So we piled into the Upskill limousine and began our Kalymnos mega tour. The main port town Pothia, the impressive church and monastery of Saint Savaas, and the scenic township of Vathy were all ticked. In order to work up an appetite, we decided some swimming, snorkeling and cliff jumping was in order... The water was just as good as it looks here. I've got a mighty spring going in this photo. At our restaurant at Vathy which is an

Despite my dark, and never mentioned aloud, concerns, the van made it to Joshua Tree. I rolled into one of the primo sites in Hidden Valley Campground last night about nine pm. Not without drama, of course. But each epic was a “Terrie-type” one; that is to say – no true inconvenience was involved. The first on-the-road problem arose just after I left from my family visit in Wisconsin, where I enjoyed leisurely days of lounging on my sister's couches while the wretched Wisconsin winter taunted me ...

Posted By Steve Mc Clure the 2010-07-16 The team gathered on Saturday morning and boarded their coach. 24 climbers, including some of Britain s best, Nick Sellars, Ryan Pasquil, Neil Mawson, Paul Smitton, Sam Whittacker and Myself.

After last years great success it was back again, but bigger and better, with

Has all the rain given you cabin fever? Shake a leg and hike to the top of these Bay Area high points. When the storms clear, the views should be great. Rise to the occasion! Barnabe or Bust Recipe for a great peak hike: a mostly gradual climb, hardly any people, and sweeping vistas of rolling green Northern California. Find it at Samuel P. Taylor State Parks Barnabe Peak . The 4-mile treck up begins alongside Devils Gulch Creek, a popular place to spy spawning salmon. Then it ascends, winding through a

10 days in heaven pass all too quickly and as I write this post I am sat in the departure lounge of Palma International waiting for my flight to the UK. Time in Mallorca is always good, but this trip has been extra memorable and I really am sorry to leave. I arrived in the evening on the 12th and coincidentally bumped into Alex Honnold, outside the airport exit, who also happened to be waiting on a lift from Cedar. Alex informed me the last time he had waited for Cedar, he sat on the road for 4 hours, and
