It is very frustrating, at times, when you observe the large gap in current outdoor periodicals. In one case, a magazine such as Climbing, Mountain (no longer published), or Backpacker may interest you immensely, but it is written with a national and international coverage. one wishes for more of a regional information source. Adirondack Life is a wonderful magazine because it is concerned with New York's North Country. But it's information is very general in content. As a climber and mountain lover, I must wait for two or three issues untill I can read about cross country skiing.
So Adirondack Alpine Journal has been established to bridge the gap in literature and so repress our frustration. This journal is concerned in the issues tha confront folks who like to go "High Up" in the Adirondacks. Whether in climbing the mountain with a daypack or a rope, one will appreciate the current information produced herewithin. We wish to offer various articles in each issue. Such topics as:
• Equipment
• Trails
• First Ascents and New Climbs
• Clothing Review
• Interviews
• Mountain History
• Book Reviews
• Information on Activities
• Classified Ads
• Advertising
• Fiction
• Maps of the Area. These categories are our basic direction of information. I stress that it is most important for others to express their insight and knowledge in this journal, and trust that they will be so moved to send some ideas or writing to us for publication.
