Families and adventure seekers flock to Vermont ski and snowboard resorts in the winter for downhill thrills and snowy escapes, but these resorts also shine as a beacon for summer adventure enthusiasts and families looking for outdoor escapes and events. From gorgeous golf greens and mountain trails to lakes, rivers, pools and waterparks, there are so many places (and ways) to play in Vermont’s Green Mountains in the warmer months.
For those planning an adventurous, unplugged summer staycation, Vermont is an easy one-stop shop. Save on stays at Ski Vermont resorts with discounted “off season” lodging and value packages, like the VIP Vermont Package at Stowe Mountain Lodge or the Adventure Zone package at Okemo Mountain Resort.
For weekend thrills or just a day away, enjoy the growing trend in adventure parks, which feature thrilling ziplines, mountain coasters and more. Killington expands its adventure center at the Snowshed base area this summer, adding terra tubing and stand up paddle boarding to features like the Beast Coaster and Skyride. Okemo adds an inflatable bag jump like those used by stunt doubles in movies to features including the Haulback Challenge course and zipline tour.
Ride, Bike, Hike Vermont
Whether going up, down or both, hikers and bikers enjoy beautiful views of Vermont’s bucolic mountains, valleys and forests. Hiking trails are abundant from ski resort base areas. Visit Bolton Valley for access to more than 100km of Nordic trails connecting to Vermont’s Long Trail, or Mad River Glen to access the Monroe skyline and grab a bite at the renowned General Stark’s Pub.
Mountain biking at Vermont resorts continues to grow at a rapid pace. Lift-served mountain biking options expand this summer at Killington Resort and Okemo Mountain Resort, and Smugglers’ Notch Resort adds more trails and class options. Sugarbush Resort joined forces with the Vermont Mountain Bike Association to connect nearly 60 miles of mapped trails to its own trails.

For those seeking a leisure staycation, Vermont resorts offer access to some of the best golf courses in the Northeast, spas that reflect the surrounding beauty and fitness classes that connect with the outdoors.
Vermont’s majestic mountains are well-known ski destinations in the winter, but they also serve as the backdrop for some of Vermont’s best golf courses. Tee up at Jay Peak Golf course, Vermont’s Best Public Course as rated by Golf Digest and Golf Weekly magazines, or check out a championship tournament like the New England Open and Collegiate Challenge at The Quechee Club.

Football Fan Day to hit prime time
Husker faithful are reminded to mark Wednesday, Aug. 5 on their calendar for the annual Nebraska Football Fan Day presented by U.S. Cellular.
This year's Fan Day moves to the evening with players and coaches available to Husker fans from 6-7:30 p.m. at Memorial Stadium. Fan Day is annually the best opportunity for fans to meet and greet the Husker football players, coaches and staff before the start of fall practice.
Fans will enter Memorial Stadium through Gates 3 and 24 on the southeast and southwest corners of the stadium, with gates opening at 6 p.m. The majority of players and coaches will be seated on the field throughout the stadium, with true freshman located in the stands in West Stadium.
Defensive position groups will primarily be seated along the West sideline, offensive line and receivers on the East sideline and quarterbacks and running backs in the North end zone. Assistant coaches will be seated with their respective position groups. A more detailed map is available on Huskers.com.
Nebraska fans are asked to respect players and coaches, as well as other fans by limiting their autograph requests to one item per player or coach. Any apparel items fans are wishing to have autographed should be in hand, rather than being worn. These policies will help accommodate as many fans as possible within the Fan Day time window.
Also as a reminder, autographs obtained for players and coaches are for personal use only. Any re-sale of an autographed item is prohibited and re-sale of an item with a student-athlete's signature could jeopardize the player's eligibility.
Autograph cards with a full 2015 roster, signed and unsigned Coach Mike Riley autograph cards, and other items will be available for fans at the gates.
Parking will be available for fans in lots on campus around Memorial Stadium. Additional details on parking will be available at the beginning of next week.
Restrooms for fans will be available near Gates 2 and 24, as well as under the northeast corner of the stadium near Gate 15. Fans will not have access to the Osborne Athletic Complex. Drink stations will be available near the 50-yard line on the West sideline with water, Pepsi products and Gatorade, and individuals will also be moving around the field selling refreshments.
Husker fans can also pick up numerous items, including brand new adidas products, as well as 2015 posters and media guides at Huskers Authentic on Fan Day. Huskers Authentic will be open at its main location at Pinnacle Bank Arena and a satellite location on Stadium Drive on Fan Day.
The Nebraska Athletic Ticket Office will have special hours on Fan Day from its remodeled office in the Stadium Drive Parking Garage. Fans interested in information on tickets for Husker Athletics are invited to stop by the ticket office windows from 5 to 8 p.m.
Huskers Authentic Details Plans for 2015 Football Season
The Nebraska Athletics Department has also determined its plans for its Huskers Authentic operations for the upcoming football season.
The primary store at Pinnacle Bank Arena will continue to have regular daily hours. The Huskers Authentic store at PBA is open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays and Noon to 4 p.m. on Sundays. The store will also have extensive game-day hours.
On Fridays of home football games this fall, the Huskers Authentic satellite location in East Stadium (near Gate 18) will also be open to customers. On game days, five Huskers Authentic locations will be available, including the Pinnacle Bank Arena store, the East Stadium location, a satellite location inside the West Stadium concourse and satellite locations outside the West Stadium and North Stadium.
Huskers Authentic also announced its plans for jersey sales for the upcoming year. For all sports that Huskers Authentic sells jerseys, a #1 jersey will be available for sale. In addition, a #15 jersey will be available for sale in football to commemorate the current season, and the same plan will be in place in subsequent football seasons (i.e. a #16 jersey in 2016).

Back in 2004, Niner asked mountain bike riders to join the "big" revolution—leave 26-inch wheels to the beach cruisers and step up to 29-inch wheels. The rapid success of that movement turned Niner from a niche brand appealing to a few tall mountain bikers to one of the driving forces in the movement. It didn’t hurt that Niner truly understood what makes big wheels work and made great bikes.
Flash forward 12 years and the exploding gravel scene has massively increased Niner’s rider base yet again—29-inch wheels happen to share the same dimensions as 700c wheels. Niner’s Road Less Traveled line, the RLT, has already carved out a great reputation for very capable, durable, versatile gravel, dirt and bikepacking characteristics in alloy and steel. Where Niner felt it had a gap was in pure gravel performance. As more and more racers are hanging up the crit bike and racing on gravel, Niner felt the need to ramp up the RLT’s performance, and it did it by dipping into its carbon experience with RDO mountain bikes.
What does increased performance mean to Niner on gravel? Obviously, carbon as a material—shaving weight while still delivering massive stiffness with plenty of inthe- saddle compliance—is a big part of it. The rest is rather subtle, especially when looking at the 56cm as an example. The head tube isn’t slammed, the reach isn’t hamstring-stretching long; in fact. it’s very slightly taller and shorter than an alloy or steel RLT. Is it steeper and twitchier? Nope, it still has a 71.5cm head tube. The biggest difference to the tape measure is the rear end.
The RLT 9 RDO’s chain stays are a full centimeter shorter than the alloy and steel RLTs, which shortens the entire wheelbase, yet Niner has dropped the bottom bracket a full centimeter to 65mm. The goal seems to have been: shorten the bike up to improve reactivity in the saddle, yet retain plenty of stability with the low bottom bracket and allow for a fairly relaxed rider position. "We built the thing in carbon and we want to make sure the ride characteristics match the material," says Brad Cole, Niner’s marketing manager. Of course, there are other tweaks still aimed at in-the-saddle performance. The bike runs dual throughaxles and Niner is very proud of the fact that the RLT 9 RDO passes the same brutal testing standards as its carbon mountain bikes. The bike uses flat-mount disc brakes and can accept up to 40mm tires, but ships with 35mm tires.
The new thinking Niner invested in the bike goes beyond performance in gravel to performance in the workstand. A new internal guide systems debuts on the RLT 9 RDO. With both mechanical and electronic systems, simply thread the cable in the right hole and it pops out in the desired location. No fishing necessary. While performance was the name of the game, Niner has not left those wanting to spend a few nights bikepacking out of the equation. The RDO carbon fork has rack, fender and mid mounts. The rear end can accept both fenders and racks too, making it an easy bike to load up for a long trip in the saddle.
Niner categorizes each bike in its lines by stars and we tested what it calls its Five Star build: a full Ultegra Di2 build with ENVE SES AR Disc carbon clinchers, Easton’s EC70 AX bars, Niner RDO stem, Niner saddle and Schwalbe G-One tires. Only 50 of the Five Star builds will be made and each will be $8,800. Our Five Star Niner RLT 9 RDO weighed 18.9 pounds.
The Niner’s position belies its true abilities. It feels quite relaxed as you settle into the saddle and tap out the first few Ks of your ride. This is Niner’s performance gravel rig? Hit the gas and you’ll know:
"Yeah, the Niner RLT 9 RDO is a ripper." The shorter rear end and crisp power transfer translate to a very lively feel at the pedals, as lively as the best in the gravel category. There are certainly riders that will feel like the position is not quite as aggressive as the bike’s sensations under power, but for those riders we’d recommend tweaking stack and reach with a long, –17-degree stem, because the bike’s reactivity is that good.
What the position does supply, especially with the low bottom bracket, is stability—and not just surfing thick Kansas gravel. It sits into corners exceptionally well, providing enormous confidence and a very telepathic relationship with the contact patch. On the limit, the bike’s edge is wide and forgiving, inviting riders to explore it in depth and improve riding skills without biting back.
WEIGHT: 18.9lbs 58cm without pedals or cages
BUILD: Shimano Ultegra Di2 with RS805 hydraulic braking, ENVE SES 4.5 AR wheels, Schwalbe G-One 35mm tires, Niner RDO stem and seat post, Easton EC70AX bars, Niner saddle with Ti rails.

Shell has renewed its title sponsorship of the Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix, having reached an agreement with Dorna Sports, the MotoGP™ rights holder, to support the FIM MotoGP™ World Championship and the Sepang International Circuit’s hosting of the Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix for the 2015 and 2016 championship seasons.
In conjunction with the launch of the 2015 Shell Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix, Shell also launched it flagship, hell Advance Ultra with PurePlus Technology, in limited edition packs.
These limited edition packs come in different collectible designs. The Shell Advance Ultra 10W-40 features the Malaysian Shell Advance Asia Talent Cup riders and also Malaysian Moto3 rider Zulfahmi Khairuddin while the 15W-50 features the Ducati Corse MotoGP team.
Both fully synthetic motorcycle engine oils retail at RM68.30 for a one-litre pack.
“Shell Advance Ultra with PurePlus Technology is the only motorcycle engine oil in the market that is made from natural gas. It is a result of our long involvement in motorsport that has enabled us to transfer cutting-edge lubrication technology developed for race tracks to products for everyday use on the road,”
Shell PurePlus Technology is a revolutionary gas-to-liquid (GTL) process that converts natural gas into crystal-clear base oil with virtually none of the impurities found in crude oil. GTL base oil delivers higher levels of cleansing and superior wear and corrosion protection. As a result, Shell Advance Ultra with PurePlus Technology is able to offer a clean start and deliver more power every time.
Shell’s Technical Partnership with Ducati which started in 1999 with the World Superbike Championship, was extended to include the MotoGP™ championship in 2003. In 2014, Shell Advance signed a three-year deal to become the title sponsor of the Asia Talent Cup.
The title sponsorship of the Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix is especially important. It provides Shell with an opportunity to further strengthen its long-standing presence in MotoGP™ and showcase products including Shell Advance Ultra (lubricant) and Shell V-Power (fuel) that are at the forefront of competitive innovation in world championship motorcycle racing. It also provides the ideal platform to engage further with motorcyclists within the Asia region and the world over.
Shell Advance’s involvement in the development of young riding talents from Asia through SAATC was a great boost to nurture young talent from Asia region to the prep them for the world championships.
Five young Malaysians – Adam Norrodin, Azroy Anuar, Fakhrusy Rostam, Helmi Azman and Shafiq Rasol, who are now competing in this season’s SAATC.

Running has, over the years, become an integral part of fitness training. As a result, there has been an increase in demand for running shoes leading to mass production from various brands. This has caused market flooding making it hard to pick the best shoes from the unlimited options available. As a woman who is passionate about fitness, you want shoes that will give your feet the much-deserved comfort while running. Besides, comfort, there are other factors that will influence your choice of best cheap running shoes. However, finding the right shoes can be quite challenging if you are not sure about what to look for in a shoe.
This guide gives an outline of 6 basic rules that you should observe when selecting the right shoes that offer a comfortable fit and suit your running needs. And remember, you can also add good shoe inserts that will help you feel your whole body better.
Determine Your Foot Type
Before beginning your search for the perfect running shoes, you first need to know your foot type. Everyone has a different foot type determined by their foot arch. The best way to know your foot arch is by doing a “wet test.” To do the wet test, wet your feet, stand on a paper bag for about 10 seconds and then step off. Now observe the imprint of your foot on the paper bag.
If you see a distinct curve connecting your toes and heel with a band a little less than your foot’s width, you have a normal arch. On the other hand, if there isn’t much of a curve and the imprint shows much of your foot, you have a low arch. For a high arch, you will note a very thin band connecting your heel and toe. In some cases, the band may not be noticeable. Knowing your foot type forms the basis of your shoe selection.
Know Your Gait
Having identified your foot type, the next rule is knowing your gait. Gait refers to the way your foot behaves when you run. There are four main gait types:
- Severe overpronation: When your heel strikes the ground first and then rolls in excessively. The perfect shoe here is a motion control shoe.
- Mild overpronation: The outside of your heel strikes the ground first, and the foot slightly rolls on the inside absorbing shock. Here you need a stability shoe.
- Neutral overpronation: The middle of the heel strikes the ground first, and the foot slightly rolls on the inside. This calls for a neutral cushioning shoe.
- Underpronation: You hit the ground with the outside of your heel, but instead of the foot rolling on the inside, it remains on the outside. Here you will choose a neutral cushioning shoe as well.
Some shops selling running shoes offer video gait analysis to help you make a wise purchase decision.
Know the Surface You Are Running On
With your gait and foot type already determined, the next crucial thing is knowing the surface you will be running on. If you are training on pavements, go for road shoes with thicker cushioning for enhanced shock absorption. On the other hand, If you are training on pavements, go for road shoes or tennis shoes with thicker cushioning for enhanced shock absorption.
Know the Socks You Will Be Running In
Many people often overlook the idea of running socks, but it is a crucial rule to observe. The type of socks you wear determines the fit and feel of your running shoes. Therefore, ensure that you carry the socks that fits in your shoe while running, although it must be comfortable as well. Avoid wearing cotton socks, as they tend to retain moisture which is likely to cause blisters and hot spots while running. Better to choose sustainable socks which is the best option for runners. Get a well-padded pair of socks that adds extra comfort to your ankle, heel, foot and toes.
Know the Distance You Are Running
When running over long distances, you will need cushioned shoes. On the other hand, if you are running over short distances, you may need a more flexible shoe. Such as, Adidas Yeezy boost.
Does Brand Matter?
Many women are often tempted to go for brands at the expense of their comfort and perfect fit. However, here is an important tip to always remember, when choosing running shoes, do not focus much on the brand. Settle for the shoe that feels comfortable and offers the best fit and the functionality you need.
Running just like any other physical activity calls for a comfortable gear. A perfect running shoe goes a long way in determining your running efficiency. There are many shoe outlets selling different varieties of women running shoes. However, if you want a perfect blend of class and quality, consider getting running shoes from Nike. Nike is one of the popular sportswear brands and a leading manufacturer of quality women running shoes.

From all of our crazy new year resolutions or our famous excuses to start our fitness program from Monday to eat that last bite of our favorite food to all the best ways to procrastinate to start with our fitness routine.
Well to be honest almost all of us have been in such situations as we barely know that exercise or having an activity to do daily has way more to offer to our body than just weight loss.
Therefore in this article, we would discuss what are the great benefits that are associated with exercise and why you should spend at least 45 minutes of your day in exercise.
1. It reduces the risk of chronic disease
-As we grow and age, the chances of getting diseases and facing health conditions increase to a very great extent and somehow the credit goes to our sedentary lifestyle and poor eating habits.
Diseases like Diabetes, blood pressure, hypertension, obesity, and health conditions associated with inflammation tend to approach and damage our body at a good place if one doesn't spend a little time towards exercise or any physical activity.
Since our bodies are treated with light to moderate exercise every day, it will surely thank you for keeping medical conditions away from us in the longer run.
2.It improves your mental health
-When you exercise or perform any physical activity, your body secretes and releases happy hormones that instantly make you happy and give a little feeling of achieving a goal or task as any workout is surrounded around that.
Also, it adds a layer of mental clarity as well, thus if you are in such a situation where you might not be able to make clear decisions, going for a quick walk is the best solution to get over mind fog and to have a clear and composed mind.
Exercise or any physical activity is therapeutic.
3. It helps in losing weight and makes you fit
-One of the most attractive reasons why most people workout is it helps in losing weight, well whatever be your reasons, the main objective should be to workout.
As when you work out your body burns a good amount of calories that helps you to stay in the state of a calorie deficit, which results in some fat burn or weight loss as you say.
Hence pick any kind of workout that you like and do it every day with moderate to light intensity.
4.Improves your self-confidence
Exercise helps you to build discipline, it makes you put out of your comfort zone and stick to the commitment that you laid on the starting of your fitness journey that somehow truly helps to boost your morale and self-confidence as you are committed to your fitness regime and strict with your diet, which over a period of time builds a great foundation of high self-esteem and confidence
and no brainers that you look fit than what you used to be before working out, which also improves your mood and self-confidence.
5. Improves your energy levels
-When you start your fitness journey or exercise program, your body gets in the loop or a habit to meet out and perform a certain set of physical activities, which is performed on a regular basis helps your body to be ready for any set of challenges that leads to the improvement in one's energy levels
Don't trust us? Try it for yourself, join any gym or pick any kind of physical activity that you enjoy, be it walking, running, yoga, jumping rope, etc and do it consistently for 7 days and you will feel a surge in your energy levels for sure.
Therefore exercise is just not meant for weight loss as discussed, although weight loss is one of many benefits that a regular exercise program will benefit you but apart from this exercise is great for your mental and physical wellbeing.
And these were some of the many reasons why you should not procrastinate to start your exercise regime.

Finesse fishing is one of the fastest growing techniques in bass fishing today. Anybody trying this technique needs to use the Giggy Head. The Giggy Head was ranked #1 in finesse jig heads by FLW Outdoors. What makes this product so great? First, the design is extremely snag resistent, an important factor when using light line. Second, the quality Gamakatsu hooks, also important when fishing light line and rods. These Gamakatsu hooks ensure the best hook set possible. Third, the unique keeper design. This Giggy Head design allows the bait to break free from the head enabling a more solid hook set than a jig head with a screwed in piece of plastic. Remember you are fishing with light line, light rods, and deeper water. The combination of the jig head design and Gamakatsu hooks will result in more landed fish.
Alan & Alison Weeks
Alan Weeks has over 15 years of retail Fishing Tackle experience from the big box stores, so he knows what fisherman are looking for and what they can’t find at other places. At Just Fish’n we strive to carry sought after hard to find bass fishing tackle, including homemade baits made especially for local waters by local anglers.
Along with Alan is his wife, Alison Weeks. She comes from a business background to help manage the store and learn about bass fishing and fishing tackle while helping Alan.
Alan and Alison have 2 young children who they devote any time away from the store with. As a family they love to spend a day out on the lake bass fishing or taking the kayaks out.

Team Member Review
"The Sight is best for the rider that enjoys technical terrain and capable climbing ability to match. The versatility and range of configurations makes this bike stand out as a mid-travel bike, although not for the rider that is after a plush, bottomless trail smasher. "
– Team Leader Lachlan Hughes
The Norco Sight A2 is an all-mountain bike that is built to perform in every environment with unrivalled versatility. The Sight is capable in every single situation, giving you maximum grip while you climb and descend which allows you tackle technical terrain at high speeds. Available with either 27.5” or 29” wheels, the all-mountain design starts with the light alloy frame which is paired with a tuned Fox Float Rhythm 36 Fork (160mm travel) and Fox Performance Float X2 Rear Shock for the ultimate suspension system. Norco’s Ride Aligned System helps match the bike to each specific rider, allowing you to fine tune the bike for maximum performance and adventure.
The 12 speed Shimano SLX drivetrain makes this bike a smooth mover, offering swift shifting and power transfer that allows you to put out some serious power. You’ll be able to control this power with the Shimano BR-MT520 Hydraulic Disc Brakes offering the all-weather braking power you need to excel on the dirt, which is a real difference maker when your descending or cornering. The Norco Sight A2 is the do it all bike that offers an elite suspension setup, yet is equally matched with powerful and efficient pedalling for an all-around awesome riding experience.
Long Travel Dropper Posts
Every Sight features a short seat tube for maximum standover clearance, allowing size-specific, long-travel dropper posts to get seats completely out of the way in the rough stuff.
The suspension components are matched to our precisely-engineered Ride Aligned™ kinematics to produce 150mm of travel down back and 160mm up front. Combined with the Ride Aligned™ Bike Setup Guide, the Sight's suspension is easy to dial-in for every rider.
We equipped every Sight with 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes and 200/180mm rotors to give you the speed-control you need to hit the perfect line on every ride and pull you back when the ruckus gets a little out of hand.

Salomon’s Quest 4D boot has headlined their backpacking lineup for years, and it remains a solid all-around performer in today’s market. We put the boot to the test while backpacking the rugged Huemul Circuit in Patagonia and found it to be the perfect tool for the job. The Quest is solidly made, provides fantastic support and protection for challenging trails, and retains the aggressive stance and nimble feel of previous generations. Below we break down our experiences with the Quest 4D 3 GTX. To see how it stacks up to the competition, see our article on the best hiking boots.

- The Competition
When putting on the Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX, it’s immediately apparent that this is a serious boot. The high collar and solid lacing system hold your foot and ankle snugly in place, but generous padding around the ankle and along the boot’s tongue make it very comfortable. It’s stiff enough that I wouldn’t recommend taking it for a long trek straight out the box, but with only a few short hikes under my belt before starting the Huemul Circuit, it had loosened up enough to be fitting like a glove.
One of my few complaints with the old Quest 4D 2 was that the moderately thin construction underfoot would leave me with sore feet after long days on rocky trails when carrying a heavy pack. But after a strenuous four-day trek in the 4D 3 in precisely that situation, I’m confident in saying the newer hiking boot does a better job isolating your feet from the ground. It’s difficult to pinpoint the source of the improvement—the forefoot is a little more flexible than the old boot taking some of the sting out of each step, and the outsole’s rubber compound also has more “give”—but Salomon seems to have turned this old nitpick into a non-issue.
At 2 pounds 13.8 ounces for a pair of men’s size 9s (just 0.6 ounces heavier than its listed weight), the Salomon Quest 4D 3 is almost exactly the same weight as the previous model (this bucks the trend in hiking footwear of always going lighter). And even within the sturdy backpacking-ready category, the Quest falls a little on the heavy side. For instance, competitors like the Lowa Renegade GTX Mid (2 lbs. 7 oz.) and Scarpa Zodiac Plus GTX (2 lbs. 6.4 oz.) both considerably undercut the Salomon. But I think the weight is well-spent with a tall ankle height, burly protection, and class-leading support and comfort. If you’re in the market for a lighter and more flexible boot, we recommend the Salomon X Ultra 3 Mid GTX (1 lb. 15.7 oz.). But for demanding trails and those who want the support, the Quest is worth the additional ounces.
Visually, the Salomon Quest 4D 3 and its predecessor are very similar when upright, but flip them over and you see that Salomon completely redesigned the outsole. The old wave-like look and stiff rubber compound has been replaced with better spacing to avoid caking up in mud, along with a softer Contagrip rubber. Having worn the older Quest 4D 2s extensively over the last few years, I didn’t have major complaints with the traction, but the 3s do seem to have a little more bite on steep sections, and especially on wet surfaces (likely due to the more pliable rubber). The Huemul Circuit is about as demanding and varied as it gets, and I can’t remember one misstep across rock-covered glaciers, up steep passes with hairy and loose descents, and numerous creek crossings (at least the ones shallow enough to keep my boots on). And importantly with this tread design, the lugs have not shown any signs of excessive wear.
One of the main reasons to upgrade to the Quest over a lightweight hiking boot or shoe is its stable feel. The collar sits higher over the ankle than a standard mid-height boot like the Merrell Moab 2 or Keen Targhee III, but it’s the solid support that sets it apart. The semi-stiff structure does a great job holding your feet in place without feeling restrictive like a mountaineering boot, and time and again I was impressed with how easy it was to trust my footing when carrying a heavy load on loose, rocky ground. In short, the Quest may be overkill on a casual, short-mileage weekend trip, but it was the ideal pairing for the technical terrain we were hiking in Patagonia.
The excellent lacing system, which has been a signature feature of the Quest line dating back to the original, plays a big role in its performance on rough trails. I especially appreciated the set of hooks at the bend in the ankle, which allowed me to lock in my heels on long climbs. Interestingly, Salomon did away with the two sets of locking hooks at the top of the boot (the openings are now a little wider so the laces don’t pop into place), but I haven’t experienced any issues with the laces slipping or loosening throughout very long days of hiking.
I started my test of the Salomon Quest 4D 3 in the middle of winter in the Pacific Northwest, so I gave the Gore-Tex membrane a thorough workout right off the bat. The subsequent trip to Patagonia involved intermittent rain and more creek (and sometimes river) crossings than I could count, so I have a good grasp on the quality of the design. Outside of a fairly significant misstep when crossing a marshy section off trail, which allowed water over the top of the boot, my feet remained completely dry.
I haven’t had the boots in hot weather yet—our Austral Summer backpacking trip was pretty mild overall—but I haven’t had any issues with breathability. From my experience backpacking in Utah with the old Quest 4D 2 and summer trips with a large number of Gore-Tex boots, I’m not expecting any miracles in the heat. Even a premium membrane won’t keep you totally cool, but with a pair of quality hiking socks and the Quest’s quick-drying upper material (my boots dried completely overnight after the marsh experience), I’d expect them to be a decent ventilator for a waterproof design. And in winter, the membrane has provided a nice boost in warmth, which has kept me comfortable while snowshoeing and hiking down into the mid 20s Fahrenheit.
With a tall ankle height and burly toe and heel rubber, the Quest isn’t lacking in foot protection. The boot sits about an inch above my ankle, and with plenty of padding all around, I felt confident even over technical sections on the trail. Compared to the previous version, Salomon did trim down the rubber toe cap along the sides just a little, but it still covers all of my toes and I’ve had no painful impacts. Unless you need approach shoe levels of protection and grip for scrambling and climbing rocks, the Quest provides plenty of security for off-trail and technical use.
The boot’s rugged look and feel has been backed up with solid durability thus far. There is plenty of evidence of bumps and scrapes from hitting rocks and branches, but the toe cap and leather/textile upper aren’t worse for wear. The same goes for the lacing system: a few eyelets have had the paint scraped off from contact with trail debris, but they’re still solidly in place and the laces are like new. On the underside, the sole has a few lugs that show evidence of the unforgiving terrain, but they’re small and there are no chunks of rubber missing or signs of premature breakdown.
If you’ve worn the previous version of the Quests, there are no surprises with the 4D 3 (they even have the same removable Ortholite insoles). I ordered my typical men’s 9 and it fit very true to size. The length was excellent with enough room to avoid jamming my toes on the relentlessly long descents on the trek, and the snug heel and secure lacing system kept my feet solidly in place. The toe box has an average width (wider than Salomon’s lightweight X Ultra 3), which gives your feet enough space to swell up throughout the day, but it’s not too wide to impact stability. Unfortunately for those with hard-to-fit feet, Salomon does not offer narrow or wide sizes of the Quest like Lowa does with their Renegade GTX Mids.
Other Versions of the Salomon Quest
We put the men’s Quest through its paces on Patagonia’s Huemul Circuit, and Salomon makes the shoe in a women’s version for the same price. The women’s Quest 4D 3 GTX is around half a pound lighter at 2 pounds 5 ounces and sold in different colorways, but otherwise it retains the same Gore-Tex waterproofing, upper and midsole construction, and Contagrip rubber outsole as its men’s counterpart. Salomon also makes the Quest Prime GTX, which is a trimmed-down and lighter-weight version of the 4D 3 (2 lbs. 8 oz. for the men’s version), and the 4D Forces 2, which is a tactical variation that uses reinforced (read: more durable) materials. Unlike some hiking boots, however, the Salomon Quest 4D 3 isn’t available in non-waterproof, low-top, wide, or narrow versions.
Salomon Quest 4 GTX
As a follow-up to the model tested here, Salomon recently released the Quest 4 GTX, which costs the same at $230 but features a couple key differences. Namely, Salomon lightly updated the look of the shoe to be more modern and streamlined and added a new chassis that’s designed to boost stability and support. The latest 4 is a bit lighter than the 4D 3 (my men's 9 weighs 2 lbs. 11.2 oz.), but the designs are very similar overall. For more, see our in-depth Salomon Quest 4 review.
- Fantastic support and comfort for carrying a fully loaded pack over rugged terrain.
- Tread grips well on anything from loose dirt to wet and muddy trails.
- Performance fit and excellent lacing system locks your feet in place on long climbs and descents.
- The boot is holding up very well despite rough use.

- The Quest is overkill on easy trails—there are lighter and more flexible boots and shoes made for those uses.
- Only offered in a Gore-Tex version, so it will run warm in hot climates.
- Not made in wide or narrow sizes.

The Quest has been towards the top of our hiking boot round-up for years, but it’s certainly not alone in the very competitive midweight market. One of its long-time rivals is the Lowa Renegade GTX Mid. These two boots are proven options for challenging day hikes and long backpacking trips, but the Lowa gets the edge in weight by about 6 ounces for the pair and is offered in a very wide range of sizes and widths. But if the Salomon’s fit you, we think the Quest is the better option: its lacing system is more secure, we love the aggressive running shoe-like stance, and its tougher build offers more protection and durability.
There is a growing selection of lightweight technical boots on the market in 2021, and one of our current favorites is the Scarpa Zodiac Plus GTX. This boot looks and performs a lot like a trimmed-down mountaineering design: it’s stiff, grips well, and provides excellent support and security for rough use. Compared with the Quest, it’s lighter by about 7 ounces but has a little less all-around prowess due to its rigid feel. If you’ll be off trail a lot or need something for light mountaineering, both are solid options, but the Scarpa is more specialized and thus a little less appealing than the Quest for most backpackers.
Another supportive and stable alternative to consider is Salewa’s Mountain Trainer Mid GTX, which is designed for rough alpine terrain and harsh mountain conditions. The Salewa is the heaviest design here at 2 pounds 15.2 ounces, but the extra heft does come with a couple notable upgrades. First and foremost, you get a protective, wraparound rand for standout protection from rocks and other trail obstacles, and the approach shoe-like lacing system makes it easy to get a snug fit. The tradeoff is that the Mountain Trainer feels overly stiff and bulky on well-maintained trails, although we had similar complaints with the Quest. But the real clincher for some may be price: at $250, the Mountain Trainer is $20 spendier than the Salomon despite offering less versatility.
Within Salomon’s lineup, a lightweight alternative to the Quest is the X Ultra 3 Mid GTX. At 1 pound 15.7 ounces, this boot is one of our top picks for fast-and-light travel. It provides sufficient support and protection for on-trail use, but its flexible and very nimble feel makes it easy to put on serious mileage. The X Ultra 3 Mid, however, is more limited on serious backpacking trips like the rugged Huemul Circuit. The Quest’s sturdier build, taller ankle height, more secure lacing system, and added protection underfoot are all valuable additions for steep and rough trails. We are big fans of the X Ultra line overall and love the lower weight of the Mid, but it can't match the ruggedness of the Quest 4D 3.
Last but not least is Vasque’s Breeze AT Mid GTX. We tested this boot while hiking in Patagonia and found it offers similar levels of comfort and support as the Quest while coming in $40 cheaper (for more, see our in-depth Breeze AT review). That said, from a performance standpoint, the Quest is the clear winner: its upgraded lacing system and athletic stance deliver a more precise and nimbler feel on the trail. Moreover, the Salomon grips better across a range of surfaces and has a higher-quality, longer-lasting build, which justifies its increased cost for hikers that get out a lot.

Russell Wilson is today known as one of the best running quarterbacks in history. His rookie cards are one of the highest valued modern cards.
However, not many people are aware of his baseball rookie cards.
In this article we’re going to take a look at both baseball and football Russell Wilson rookie cards.
Table of Contents
Russell Wilson Rookie Card Checklist
These are the main Wilson cards you should be looking at. We’ll also stop briefly to take a look at his baseball cards later on – skip further down if you’re interested in them.
2012 Panini Prizm Russell Wilson RC #230
Panini Prizm is one of those brands that we always associate with rookie cards. The base card is one of the most widely available cards of this player. But some refractors are so scarce that they’re among the most expensive cards overall of Wilson.
This is especially true of the Gold parallel, as there were only 10 cards of this type printed for the market. The base card will cost you several hundred dollars, depending on its condition, while the gold prizm’s value will be much higher than that. It will go into thousands, if not tens of thousands.
Another interesting parallel you should be taking a look at is the silver prizm. But if you’re someone who’s looking for entry-level cards of this player, then you can have a look at the base card.
2012 National Treasures Russell Wilson RC #325
If you’re into the card collecting world, then you know by now that National Treasures cards will always be some of the most valuable cards in the world. This Wilson card is no different, of course, but its price is amped by the player that’s on it.
These cards are found in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Some are vertical while others are horizontal, but all of them should contain the player’s signature, a patch of his jersey, and an action picture of the player. One common factor of these cards is their elegant design. All of them are printed on a white background, giving them the classy look these cards have always had.
The card can reach dizzying heights if it’s in top condition. It can be anywhere between several thousand dollars and up to a hundred thousand, depending on the market itself.
At least you know you’re getting something extraordinary and rare with this one, though. The base card had 99 cards printed originally, although there are some parallels that you can consider. These include Gold (49), Black (25), Platinum (5), Red (1), Yellow (1), and some others that only have one single copy.
2012 Panini Contenders Russell Wilson Rookie Ticket Auto #225
It can be a tough choice if you’re into premium cards. National Treasures and Panini Contenders have both worth contestants in this category when it comes to Russell Wilson cards. Both have something unique going for them.
But the Panini Contenders tends to outsell National Treasures cards, especially when it comes to rookie cards. Firstly, that’s because they’re just a tad less expensive, but also because they’re just the go-to card for rookie card collectors.
Make no mistake: you’ll need to spend up to several thousand bucks to get this one in PSA 9 or PSA 10 condition. But the most expensive Panini Contenders cards are still a bit cheaper than National Treasures cards, and they still have that premium feel many card collectors go for.
2012 Upper Deck Exquisite Russell Wilson Auto Patch RC #127
Exquisite cards from Upper Deck’s collection were always at the top of the popularity ranks from this provider. They had this premium feel to them that was meant to rival National Treasures and other cards of the same echelon.
It’s also a bit different from the other two cards we’ve seen so far, especially in terms of colors. It’s primarily red with white and black parts on it, as it has Wilson playing in the red jersey of Seattle Seahawks.
So that’s the main distinguishing factor that makes this card so vastly popular. Another thing to mention is that there were only 150 of these originally, so they’re also rarer than Panini Contenders, for instance.
You may find mainly ungraded cards on marketplaces today, though. This doesn’t appeal to some collectors, but it presents a nice chance for you to get a good bargain – provided that you have an eye for details and you can grade a card well, though.
2012 Topps Chrome Russell Wilson RC #40
The Topps Chrome rookie card of Wilson is perhaps the most common card that you’ll find of this player. It’s one of the most popular brands for rookie cards in history, because of its nice and elegant design and widespread availability.
You can’t go wrong with this one. It’s going to appeal to both entry-level collectors and those who look for premium cards. If you’re truly serious about getting the most premium cards though, you can go for one of the many parallels of this card. There are more than 20 refractors and variations that you can get.
One of the more common ones is the Topps Chrome Rookie Autographs card, which looks like this:
It’s virtually the same card where the only difference is in the signature right below the image. While the signature is nice, some collectors won’t like the fact that it’s in the form of a sticker.
The base card is very affordable and easily attainable, but some refractors can cost several hundred to several thousand dollars. This card offers much versatility which means it’s an appealing choice to a wide array of collectors.
2012 Topps Strata Russell Wilson Patch Auto RC #75
This is one of those cards that will have a premium feel about them, and are still widely available to this day. Originally, these cards were considered to be relics and they were only available in one-card packs, so it was quite tough to get them in a pack.
The main appealing feature of this card is the large match-worn swatch where you also have the chance to feel the jersey itself on the card. It’s a nice touch. Also, there’s an autograph that’s right on the swatch’s protection piece, so it will stay there for quite a long time provided that you have this card stored safely.
If you want, you can go into some of the parallels that have more colorful swatches. The base version that you can see here has a less colorful swatch, but it’s also less expensive. Most of them will be ungraded though, so watch out for the quality of the card on the whole.
2012 Prime Signatures Russell Wilson RC Auto
Here’s another card that fits into the premium category – it’s the Prime Signatures rookie card of Russell Wilson. Back in 2012, this set was among the most popular and best-selling football sets overall. And if you can get your hands on one of the rookie cards, even better.
You can see why these cards were so appealing to collectors – and still are today. They have this classic, elegant look without putting too many features onto the card. It takes the “less is more” approach without overwhelming us with the many unnecessary features that other premium cards opt for.
It doesn’t have a swatch, although it does have an autograph right below the image. This will increase the value of the card slightly, along with the fact that there were only 199 of these base cards printed originally.
If you’re looking for a more classy and perhaps even a bit more traditional card, then you should opt for the Prime Signatures Wilson card. It’s not the cheapest of cards but you’re getting your money’s worth for sure here.
2012 Topps Triple Threads Russell Wilson RC Auto #131
There are two different variations of the Tripe Threads cards from Topps. Both are limited in quantities, so you might need to spend a bit more to get them both. They’re quite different, though. The main difference is how the swatch is presented – the first one has #3 cut out, while the other has SEA and RC printed out so that the swatch is visible.
The second one is also a bit shinier than the first one. Both have an autograph, which is stickered onto the card. As always, this is a double-edged sword that some collectors won’t particularly like, but it’s no big deal for others.
This card still belongs to the premium category, but only just. It has the plain version of the jersey, which is not favorable for some, although it still has everything going for it that a premium card should have.
2012 Topps Five Star Russell Wilson RC #159
The Topps Five Star Russell Wilson card is among the priciest cards of this player. It has an autograph, a match-worn jersey patch, a limited run of 50, and an appealing design. This is everything that makes a premium card tick.
It’s different from National Treasures in the fact that it has a smaller swatch, which doesn’t do it any favors. But the good news that there are some variations of this card that have larger swatches, although these also come at a price.
Even though it’s a bit hard to get into the club of owners of this card because of its limited quantity, it’s still a great long-term investment. As years go by, this card will get more and more expensive, while more and more collectors will prefer to keep this card for themselves. This card will age like fine wine.
Russell Wilson Baseball Rookie Cards
Admittedly, the short of Wilson baseball rookie cards is short. But these cards are worth taking a look at if you’re a baseball card enthusiast. His baseball cards are his earliest sports cards out of all of them.
2010 Bowman Chrome Prospect Russell Wilson RC
Just lie Bo Jackson, Russell Wilson was initially recognized as a huge talent and particularly a fine athlete. This meant that he could play both baseball and football to a pretty high level.
Wilson was already picked in the 2007 draft by Baltimore Orioles, but he decided to pursue a college education instead. From 2008 to 2010, he played both college baseball and football, although he was primarily leaning towards football.
However, in 2010, he was drafted by the Colorado Rockies to play in the MLB in the fourth round of the draft. He shortly abandoned his football career to join the 2011 spring training with the Rockies. However, he spent most of this season with the Asheville Tourists, which was an affiliate team of the Rockies.
From 2011 on, Russell decided to focus on football, although he still attended some spring training with various teams. Perhaps the most famous moment in his baseball career came in 2018 when he was fielded by the New York Yankees, which was his childhood dream, playing alongside Aaron Judge.
This Bowman Chrome card is relatively easily attainable and not too expensive. Though a top-rated card like this can cost up to a thousand dollars if not more.
2010 Topps Pro Debut Russell Wilson RC
The other baseball card that you should know about is the Topps Pro Debut card from 2010. Like the Bowman Chrome card, this one tends to have more popularity with baseball fans rather than general card collectors.
This card is on an upward trend, though. It seems as though more and more collectors are starting to appreciate Wilson’s early days in baseball. But this card is a bit more expensive than the Bowman Chrome card.
That’s perhaps because this card was from an earlier part of his baseball career, where he was still in college. Nevertheless, you can still consider getting this card if you’re interested in baseball cards or you just appreciate Russell Wilson and his sporting talents and you want something of a novelty.
He has a series of great rookie cards in both the NFL and in baseball too, where he was drafted in the 2010 MLB draft.
