Highlights from my favorite outdoor blogs:

Calipidder went backpacking at Point Reyes National Seashore.

Gadling linked to the most-excellent Arun’s Travel Blog (which is much like my homepage except the hills are in India and he has monkeys for neighbors).

Simplehiker linked to a place where I found a cool story on making your own hiking sandals out of old car tires.

Dan Mitchell weighs in on the reality of climate change.

OutdoorsPro is skiing his little white fanny off.

Speaking of skiing, WildeBeat has a bunch of programs on ski touring in the Sierra.

Speaking even more of skiing, GO Blog has a nifty post about boutique skis.
