You’re three days into a backcountry trip, your filter cartridge just split, and the only water source is a stagnant pond that smells like a wet bag of ass. Or maybe it’s not a trip at all — the tap ran dry after a storm took out the water treatment plant and you’re standing over a 5-gallon bucket of questionable creek water wondering what you actually know how to do about it.Iodine tablets are the answer everybody memorizes and almost nobody actually carries when it counts. They’re slow, they taste like a swimming pool had a baby with a penny,…
Charred lodgepoles scratching a gunmetal sky reflected my mood. This morning the elk had won. No plan in mind, I climbed beyond where they’d scattered. Probing the slope’s crest from the sit with my binocular, I saw it. Among ranks of black boles with low-arcing limbs, a branch curved up. The lenses of my 7×35 Bausch & Lomb resolved it. Antler! A 4 o’clock tangle became the bull’s hump — all but hidden by the bead on my .32 Special. After the carbine spoke I scaled the scarp and found blood on hoof-gashed snow. The elk lay 50 yards on.…

LAKELAND, FL — The grocery aisles of Florida’s most prominent supermarket chain are undergoing a quiet but significant change in security posture. This week, residents at several Publix locations in Miami-Dade and Broward counties noticed…

The Vermont Senate has moved forward with S. 329, a bill that would establish a statewide ban on firearms in bars and restaurants that serve alcohol. The legislation, which passed on preliminary approval along party lines, aims to replace a long-stalled Burlington charter change with a uniform state law—though it faces a likely veto from Governor Phil Scott, who has expressed skepticism regarding its enforceability. MONTPELIER, VT — A decade-long effort to separate firearms and alcohol in Burlington has transformed into a statewide legislative battle. On Thursday, May 7, 2026, the Vermont Senate advanced a measure that would make it…

Photos by Iain Harrison and Muneki Samejina Concept cars push the boundaries of design and engineering. In the early days of the automotive industry, automakers used concept cars to generate attention. These were the days before internet marketing, so companies had to take a more hands-on approach with gauging public opinion. This was a good way for carmakers to show what they could do and get ahead of the competition. Today, concept cars are still used to showcase what designers and engineers can accomplish when they put their minds to it. These cars contrast the practical-minded commonplace and offer a…
My first scope was not a Leupold. A Leupold was something to aspire to. At $59.50 a 4x Leupold cost 10 bucks more than a K4, and 20 more than the scope I bought. Which set me back a little more than my first deer rifle. My first Leupold has faded in memory. Perhaps a 2-7x my friend Bob recommended, it may have arrived with a rifle swap. The 2-7x on Bob’s Featherweight Model 70 chambered for the .270 Win cartridge had accounted for many bucks, including a long-tined mule deer that had hunkered most of October in a cut…
