What sort magazines or other print media does /out/ read?
I'm mostly interested in a resurgence of indie outdoors publications catering to backpackers or covering general "mountain culture", like Mountain Gazette (mountaingazette.com), which is a reboot of a 70's magazine (some say the first "counter-cultural" outdoor magazine, i.e. that wasn't geared towards hunting / fishing -type content), or the forthcoming Trails Magazine (trailsmag.net), which I guess is trying to recapture the vibes of 80s-90's era Backpacker magazine (before it became a low-quality shitfest of listicles and adverts masquerading as gear reviews).
I managed to pick up a bunch of physical issues of original 70's-era Mountain Gazette. There are neat pieces in some by the likes of Edward Abbey, and adverts for some of the giants of outdoor gear back when they were just out of some guy's garage.
Alpinist (alpinist.com) is cool too, but more geared towards climbers.
What other stuff like is worth picking up? Trying to find stuff that isn't just full of gear reviews and ads (so like, not Backpacker, or Outside, etc... FFS I just went an looked at outside and they have a fucking article reviewing Mountain Dew).
