Trails Magazine Issue 13

Trails Magazine's 13th Issue explores endurance in various forms. The cover, shot by Jake Marty in the Utah canyonlands, sets the scene for many of this issues stories, including our second annual Editors' List: our context-specific take on the best gear for shoulder season adventures in canyon country. On top of that, this issues features an examination of the plethora of new long trails tied together with road walking and overlapping more established routes, and asks what's the point of them? Another feature follows Roland Banas on the first summer crossing of Death Valley. There's a profile of Eric Gilbertson, the peak bagger with a penchant for surveying the peaks he climbs. Plus the work of the North Cascade Glacier Climate Project, the story of Betty MacKaye, and all the recipes, trip reports, maps, and more than you expect from Trails Magazine.
