Is it just us, or does beer taste better in the fall? Maybe it’s the crisp, cool weather and changing leaves. Or maybe it’s all the amazing local Oktoberfest festivities that give us the chance to raise our steins with friends. Or maybe we’re just really big fans of local beers! Either way, fall is a great time for beer lovers to be in Colorado. Whether you’re visiting for the weekend to see the fall colors in the Rockies or you’re a seasoned local, you won’t want to miss out on the incredible Oktoberfest events across the Front Range.

September 18th is National Cleanup Day!  At Sherpani, when we think of cleaning up, we typically think of our responsibility to nature and the ways we can be good stewards of the land. From following Leave No Trace principles while hiking to keeping plastic off the beaches, keeping our wild spaces clean and following sustainable manufacturing practices is one of our top priorities.  But keeping your own personal space clean and organized is important, too. Studies show there are various mental health benefits to living a clutter-free life and going minimal — from more energy to reduced anxiety. Plus, minimalism...

August 26 is International Dog Day, and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate than loading our furry friends up into the hatchback and hitting the trail.

The end of summer marks an important time for college students: it’s time to get all your books for the semester. And in doing so, you might notice your trusty book bag from last year could use an update. Whether you’re headed back to campus or commuting to your university this fall, the most important thing to bring is a bag that can keep up with your busy schedule. We’re talking the best backpacks and crossbody bags for laptops and heavy textbooks, totes for heading to the gym, and a cute and functional purse for brunch or a night out...

When you’re traveling the globe, sometimes you need a really great read to come along with you. Sure, you could read Wild for the millionth time (guilty), but maybe it’s time to find your new favorite travel book. We’re talking uncharted islands, epic nature, and some major grappling with identity — all the basic elements of being a female explorer in the modern era. Our list of favorite incredible travel books is lengthy, but we somehow managed to narrow it down to a few must-reads for your next layover or beach read. From illustrated atlases to emotional travelogues, here are...
