Check out our guide before you hit the trail!

Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME. 

Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

If Trump ever really cared about peace, there never would have been any rare earth minerals deal to sign.

Instead of playing Whack-a-Mole, why not pass some real data restriction policies for US citizens? Something like a US GDPR. Ones that actually apply to US companies, too.

Introducing our new hashtag independent hiking feed! We realized we might be missing out on great posts from those who don’t always tag their adventures.

Just mention hiking in your post (like hike, hiking, hiker, hikemore) & share a pic to inspire others to hit the trail!

Trump probably thinks Greenland and Canada are both the size of Africa because he doesn’t understand how the Mercator projection distorts the size of spherical objects. 🌎🌍

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that everyone nominated to trump's cabinet should be subjected to an extensive FBI probe, as a matter of national security.

The more shady details in their background, the more prone to blackmail they are, the less safe we'll be.
