Yakima SkyBox LoPro Titanium Review
Recently, we have been testing out the Yakima SkyBox LoPro Titanium on various skiing, camping, and road trips. Since we usually have a lot of gear, dogs, and people crammed into our vehicles, we found this cargo box to be super handy. The SkyBox LoPro comes with a low profile sleek design to reduce wind [...]

Salomon XT WINGS 2 Review
In pursuit of outright flight, here at ActiveGearReview we have made a number of daring attempts at the impossible. Activities such as hucking ourselves off of cliffs are commonplace, and while we do find the term “lemming” offensive, we’ll admit that it is sometimes apt. These shoes are built from top to bottom for all [...]

La Sportiva Mountain Cup Series
Continuing to deepen its roots in the trail running scene, La Sportiva continues its efforts with the Mountain Cup trail running series. I recently ran the Jupiter Peak Steeplechase on August 7th, 2010, a 16 mile trail race in Park City, UT. The race started out with about a 1/2 mile fire road to allow runners [...]

Mt Werner Classic – Steamboat Springs, CO
When many of you think about Steamboat Springs, CO you think about the world class ski area pictured below. However, Steamboat Springs, also known as simply Steamboat or the ‘boat by many Coloradans, is also incredibly gorgeous in the summer. Wildflowers sprinkle the valley and open fields on the ski slopes. The area is also [...]

Salomon Exo Wings TW Short Review
You may be wondering why in the heck a girl is reviewing men’s running shorts. Fair enough. Don’t worry, I have not forsaken by beloved running skirts in exchange for men’s shorts, but I have participated in the successful conclusion of my husband’s quest to find the ultimate running shorts—and I had to share so as [...]

Hydrapak Jolla Review
The Jolla from Hydrapak is one the most versatile hydration packs on the market. At 18 liters of space and holding a 100 ounce resevoir it is a great choice for those all day hikes, bikes or treks. Plenty of storage and well placed zipper and pockets make it easy to organize. Having used this [...]

Nomad Portable Power Washer Review
Keeping your gear clean and working properly can often be a chore. Scrubbing, brushing and wiping down bikes, camping gear, your car or kayak takes time and energy. Using your garden hose to wash it down first is effective, but not convenient if you are traveling to a race or taking bikes along on a [...]

One of Salewa’s promises is 100% blister free wear for its full line of approach, mountaineering and tech approach footwear. After months of usage of my Firetail tech approach shoes their promise has held true.

ExOfficio Baja Shirt Review
I have no bias against fishing, I’ve just never done much of it. But fishing was the focus of a recent family trip to the Abacos in the Bahamas, bone fishing at that! From what I’ve been told and experienced, bone fishing is more like hunting—you see a tell-tale swirl on the surface of the [...]

Sugoi Moxie Skirt review
If you are an old-school, purist runner who thinks minimalist track shorts are the only proper running attire, well…I disagree. I love running skirts. They are comfortable, feminine yet functional and look great on most body types. One of the many reasons I despised gym class was the unisex, elastic-waistband, puffy shorts that managed to [...]
