When traveling outside of the country or exploring remote areas, 2 way communication is vital. There are more areas on this planet without cell service than you may think. So that shiny iPhone in your pocket can quickly become useless without a signal. I often kayak in the Great Lakes and find myself out of […]
The tour of the various processes was coming to a close so we were invited to the obligatory tasting (My favorite part). But what I didn’t know was just how awesome of a bar they have. Carved into the pre-existing stone, we were told to follow the dim lights leading into a cool and humid […]

We all know or are ourselves in various stages of a love/hate relationship with the Veterans Administration. And most of us know that the vast majority of the VA is staffed with dedicated doctors that truly want to help our veterans. But that like any huge bureaucracy, that help is often caught up in an […]

Between the Polar Vortex and record amounts of snowfall in February alone, Northern Michigan has become a winter wonderland. Last week, over three feet of light fluffy snow has accumulated and begs to be played in. Fortunately, MSR was kind enough to send out a couple of pairs of their Lightning Explore Snowshoes to help […]
