3. You are done living through influencers.
Our writers and photographers aren’t making millions through farming content. They’re finding the best stories and moments to capture and taking the time to tell them well. Backcountry Magazine’s pages are filled with stories that make you think, profiles of the people reshaping the sport, expeditions that inspire and columns anyone can relate to.
4. You never liked paying for brand-sponsored editorial content.
Backcountry Magazine values independent storytelling. That means nobody is paying us to tell a story or write a good gear review. Lifesaving avalanche safety tools and expensive gear deserves to be put through the ringer and honestly written about. That’s what we do.
5. You enjoy world class photography in a format bigger than you phone
Sure, that iPhone photo you took yesterday looks decent in the Instagram feed. But world-class photography deserves a big, glossy page to land on. If you love crisp, beautiful ski shots from all over the world, you’ll find plenty in every issue of Backcountry.
Start your journey to the untracked experience today!
