Coleman Cascade 3-in-1 Camp Stove

by Paulina Dao March 4, 2026
written by Paulina Dao

The green Coleman Classic Camp Stove is one that’s a staple in every car camping kit. It is affordable, and available almost anywhere, including big box stores. In 2022, Coleman launched their 1900 collection, which includes the Coleman 1900 3-in-1 Camp Stove, designed to take their trusty little stove even further. Is the Coleman 1900 3-in-1 Camp Stove worth the premium price point? I’ve used it for 3+ years now, and here are my thoughts.

Hyperlite Mountain Gear Camera Pod Review

written by Paulina Dao

I’ve long been a fan of Wild Rye chamois since I started cycling more seriously in 2023. My first pairs of padded shorts were the Wild Rye Eleanor Chammy. After rocking those for many months, I discovered the world of bibs and never looked back. Gone are the days of having to tug the waist band up after rolling down. When Wild Rye introduced the Billie Stash Bibs, I had to try them out. Bibs with pockets for snacks and my phone? I need.

Staying at the Little Mt. Hoffman Lookout

by Paulina Dao January 29, 2025
written by Paulina Dao

Mount Shasta dominates the landscape in Northern California, but this area is home to many hidden gems. Built in the 1920s, the Little Mt. Hoffman Lookout was used by the Forest Service until the late 70s. Now, it’s occasionally used by the Forest Service in times of extreme fire danger, but is primarily a cabin rental for guests.
