Backcountry Magazine The Perspectives Issue | Issue #143 Edizione posteriore

Behind the cover, you’ll find profiles of influential backcountry figures and ideas on having hard conversations in the skintrack, mobilizing the masses for climate change and connecting winter snowpack to a new generation of farmers. Additionally, guide Michael Brackenhofer goes for a walk on the wild side in Smithers, B.C., and Mallory Duncan, a.k.a. Galactic Brown, reflects on his place in skiing. Cementing the issue are profiles of professional splitboarder and funny hat-enthusiast Nick Russell and Hadley Hammer, who shares her experience of love and loss in the mountains after the death of boyfriend, David Lama.
