Wild Magazine Wild Magazine #196 Edizione posteriore

Wild #196 is here! Naturally, being winter, there are lots of stories about snow. In this issue, we have stories from Evelina Nilsson on how a trip to NZ’s Main Divide had her thinking not just about skiing, but about motherhood, love, and the next generation; a piece from Shaun Mittwollen on his trips into the Tassie backcountry; and Rohan Kennedy's project to ski fifty of the best lines on Kossie’s Main Range. It’s not all snowy epics, though, with track notes from Queensland’s Mt Halifax; five of the best walks on Great Barrier Reef islands; hiking in Greenland; Pat Wilcox's month-long packrafting and hiking solo expedition through Alaska’s Gates of the Arctic; and Pete Wilcox's adventures close to home in his photo essay ‘Project 52: A Year of Microadventuring’. Beyond adventure pieces, there’s a feature by Ryan Hansen on walking in Northeast Victoria’s Hume Reserves and the psychology of outdoor memories; Keith Scott's piecing together of Hadi Nazari's 13-day disappearance; a profile on an informal walking group called the Scallywags; an extended discussion on trail engineering; a look at the damage done by the bushfires in Grampians NP; Dan Slater's philosophy of big trips; and on the NT’s crocodile control debate. And of course, there are our regular columnists, Green Pages, gear reviews and lots, lots more.
