Basecamp is a metaphor for starting your adventure. Whether at home or up at Everest, you prepare for your trip, plan, and dream.

What it's All About in Issue Three

Issue three was published in June 1984.

The leaves on the trees have replaced the snow on the ground. As the warmer months arrive, the mountains beckon. This issue is for those people who are interested in exploring the Adirondacks, both hikers and climber alike. While we are concerned directly with local information, we feel it important to expose places where Adirondackers have also traveled.

The main goal of this magazine is to provide interesting and reliable information in an enjoyable and readible context, thus the fictional format of the Gore-tex and hikers articles. They serve to minimize the banality in which technical infornation is often presented. We are extremely interested in publishing outdoor journalism -- short fictional accounts, water sports, fishing, and many other facets of mountain literature. Please feel free to write. See you on top!
