We've been getting some questions about the cutest (and most functional) ski or snowboard gear, so here's what I've been wearing for years, as well as some new (and very exciting) pieces that I recently tried (a few of these were recently tested on the slopes as well!).
I tried to include notes on the varying lengths of snowpants...
My husband and I love hiking year-round, whether at home on our favorite trails, or discovering new ones while traveling. But there’s something extra magical about heading into the woods during fall.

Any other outdoor folks live for that first sip of coffee on your first morning camping? Ahh. SO. Good. Those outdoor coffee moments make the whole trip worth it for me. And the views, of course, the views...whether it be mountains, a river, the woods...I'll take it all, thank you.
We haven't yet ventured back into the world of hike-in...

Not only do they carry the best outdoor gear (I only know this because of everyone's awesome reviews here on the blog...for the record, I'm pretty indoorsy) but they also carry plenty of brands that adventure seekers (Shana) and non-adventure seekers (me) can both appreciate. Exhibit A: these cute shoes....

I learned the value of waterproof hiking pants on our trip to Iceland, oh gosh...five years ago now? I didn't arrive in Iceland with waterproof hiking pants — quick-dry leggings are almost as good, right? — but after a few days of consistently wet legs, I became the...

We're in Carolina Beach--one of our favorite places in the world--this month. The beaches are absolutely gorgeous and we are taking full advantage of our time here.
I'd love to say we're able to take in the beautiful sunrises over the ocean, but with two little...
