About
Get ready to plunge into summer with Wild #190, jam-packed with Australian adventure, conservation, opinion pieces, and more. We’ve got walking in the Victorian High Country, in Tassie’s Western Arthurs, and in Kosciuszko NP; a guide for getting into packrafting; canyoning in NSW’s Blue Mountains; a photo essay from Dylan Robinson covering the deepest snow in backcountry surrounding Japan’s Nozawa Onsen; Kelly Kavanagh's adventurous 62-day epic ski to the South Pole, and a very heartfelt story by Mat Young on how three months of alpine climbing and splitboarding in NZ’s South Island helped him overcome an intense sense of isolation after leaving the Army.
Aside from our adventurous stories, we also have a profile piece on Beau Miles; a tale about surviving Salt Lake City’s Outdoor Retailer trade show; a piece on crag stewardship as climbers work to improve both their communities and the environs they climb in, as well as our regulars, awesome columnists, our Green Pages, our Wild Shot, and so more.
