To find the most steadfast 4-season tents, we tested builds while hunting and ski mountaineering across the country from the treelines of volcanoes to the high-alpine Rockies. Here are our top choices for year-round tents. Outdoorsy folks who need shelter in unpredictable and potentially savage conditions should opt for the most substantial, enduring tents. While 4-season tents don’t offer the dreamy ventilation or streamlined weight you need for bikepacking along the Kokopelli Trail, they are a security shield for rough or wintry precipitation — which could land any time at high altitude. For that reason, a range of recreationists heading to remote camps seek the muscle of a 4-season tent, from hunters to mountaineers, alpine climbers, and backcountry skiers. While...

OSes are never truly finished. macOS has been continuously evolving for decades, and it would be foolhardy to declare it ‘finished’ in any sense of the word. It’s not. However, when you step back and look at macOS over time, trends and storylines emerge from the feature list minutiae of each release. For the past few years, no narrative thread has been more important to the Mac and its operating system than their realignment within Apple’s product lineup. It’s a fundamental transformation of both hardware and software that has taken shape over years, beginning publicly with Craig Federighi’s WWDC Sneak Peek in 2018.
