While we appreciate the convenience of camping, there’s nothing quite like spending a night under the stars in a place where no cars go. Backpacking for the first time can be intimidating and while bringing your pooch along means there are a few more things to consider it can be very rewarding for both of […]
More often than not in Los Angeles, if you’re hitting a beautiful local trail, chances are you won’t be out there alone. Unless of course, its raining. Yes indeed, it rains occasionally in LA and that tends to keep everyone indoors and off the trails. This is one of my absolute favorite times to go […]

Plastic is one of the biggest culprits for polluting our earth. Carelessly dumped plastic has impacted our oceans significantly, such as the […]
The sun is out, the geese are flying north, and the ever so persistent blanket of snow is slowly disappearing from right in front of our eyes. Spring has finally shown us its beautiful face and with the delight of saying good-bye to old man winter we now have a new enemy to contend with. […]

They offer various combinations of fleece lining and shell material, including the part fleece/part shell Great White North we tested.
