There are many reasons why one might not want to rent a car from a traditional rental car company when traveling. Maybe you’re bringing sports equipment that won’t fit into a standard rental, or you want to blend in with the locals to prevent break-ins, or you might even need AWD to cover some difficult terrain. These were the factors on my mind when I tried car-sharing app Turo, which allows car owners to rent their personal vehicles to travelers....

Han Solo might be dead, but Harrison Ford still has to answer questions about him forever. The veteran Star Wars and Indiana Jones actor appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Feb. 10 to promote his new movie, The Call of the Wild, and naturally, his blaster-slinging scoundrel came up. Jimmy Kimmel noted that the last time Ford appeared on his show, he pleaded for Han Solo to be killed off. “You’re putting a different complexion on it,” Ford said....

As Netflix ushers in the New Year, some folks are going to be stoked with new streaming options, and others are going to be weeping into their popcorn when they see what’s leaving the service. Fans of the Dark Knight are going to be very excited about five Batman movies coming to their screens. Those will be joined by more big action fare, like the Lethal Weapon flicks, National Treasure, and all three Godfather films as well....

This story was originally published in POWDER Magazine. Words by Sierra Davis. Imagine answering a call from you mom on the chairlift — in July — and trying to explain to her that you were spending the week skiing slalom gates on a glacier, on a volcano, with a bunch of preteens. Yes, there’s still snow … yes, a lot. No, I’m not a counselor, I’m a camper. Yes, the other kids are being nice to me....

An argument can be made for Bam Margera having been the most popular skatboarder ever at the height of his fame. Not only was he an incredible skater, but he jumped to mainstream celebrity status with his multiple shows on MTV that saw him and his group of friends pulling pranks, skateboarding and sacrificing their bodies for laughs. We all know how the story went: what went up needed to come down....

My first dual-sport motorcycle ride was a brutal 1,600 miles. The scrappy route started just below the Mexican border in the buzzing port of entry Tecaté, and ended with bald tires and dusty teeth in Canada’s tapestry of forests just north of the Idaho panhandle. At the time, the notorious Southern California District 37 race organization was planning annual rides as street-legal dirt bikes grew in popularity. These moto Magellans managed to stitch together a combination of single-track, checkerboard BLM land, bladed forest service roads and sometimes sketchy “private property” that came complete with a disgruntled landowner wielding a shotgun loaded with rock salt....

A cast-aluminum Dutch oven like GSI’s 10-inch hard-anodized model ($69.95) or the Woody Dutch Oven ($99.99) is the most versatile piece of cookware a backcountry chef can pack.

It’s sturdy enough to handle campfire cooking and the most aggressive dishwaters. Simply put, I won’t travel without my trusty Dutch oven when I’m feeding a group on a sea kayak or canoe trip....

First, an explanation: Apple brandy is not the sweet, green stuff you drank back in college. It’s a centuries-old liquor distilled from apples. In France, its oldest form is called calvados, and in America, it was made before there was a Constitution. Lately, though, there’s been renewed interest in the spirit, and distilleries across the U.S. are producing impeccable versions with the smooth warmth of whiskey and the fruit notes of cognac....

Actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is ready to enter The Matrix. After keeping one of the biggest secrets in recent television history on HBO’s Watchmen, Abdul-Mateen II, Men’s Journal‘s fall fashion star, is keeping one more as he prepares for a hush-hush role in The Matrix 4 alongside original trilogy stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss. ‘Matrix 4’: Your Guide to the New ‘Matrix’ Sequel With Keanu Reeves Read article While no details have been revealed yet about who Abdul-Mateen II is playing, the actor said in an interview on The Daily Show that he’s excited about the story the movie will tell—and that he’s been back in the gym training hard to get ready for the shoot....

High-intensity internal training, also known as HIIT, has been shown to provide all sorts of great health benefits, from helping lose weight to releasing feel-good chemicals in the brain. It’s also a good way to get in a cardio routine when you have limited time, because HIIT protocols only require that you mix intense exercise with moderate moves for about 20 minutes. But HIIT doesn’t just benefit your waistline or your cardio system—it also improves the functioning of your mind....

The final stretch of the Half Dome hike. Photo: Jon Perino An unidentified male hiker slipped from the cables on the famed Half Dome hike in Yosemite National Park Monday afternoon, and fell to his death, according to a news release from the park. The release stated that the hiker, along with another person, was climbing the final section of the hike at approximately 4:30 p.m. during “thunder storm activity,” when the hiker lost his footing....

While exercise machines are handy to have, they sure take up a lot of space. Even if they’re stowable, setting them up and taking them down every day can be a pain. Plus, big machines can be pricy. And besides, while treadmills and stationary bikes are great for cardio, they really don’t give your upper body any kind of workout at all. Don’t you wish you had an inexpensive exercise machine that worked out your whole body, and slid neatly way out of sight when you weren’t using it?...

Whether your passion is running, biking, tennis, or golf, odds are you’ll be out there this weekend doing your thing: trying to ace a shot or nail your pace while swiping away streaky sunblock before it dribbles into your eyes. (Unless, ahem, you aren’t wearing any SPF to begin with?) Whichever the case, it’s about time someone came up with a run-free, sweat-friendly, sun-protecting balm for your face. And so they did....
