The venerable Alpinist magazine suffered a significant setback last month when a warehouse in Oregon, Illinois that housed all of its inventory (back issues, hats, shirts, water bottles, stickers, coffee mugs) burned to the ground. Nothing was salvaged. Read more details here. Alpinist is an archival-quality, quarterly publication dedicated to the world of alpinism and adventure climbing. They believe in “sinker jams high off the deck, a bomber nut, the crescent moon, your partner’s whoop, sand-washing the fry pan, road trips, one-swing sticks, remembering to breathe, alpine starts (more for the alpenglow than the early hour), espresso in the desert, the plungestep, lenticular cloudcaps, rest days, the focus of a runout, and a cold beer at the end of it all.”

Visit the Alpinist magazine website here. Check out the incredible videos available via Alpinist TV here.
