โœจHave you picked up our Fall Issue yet? โœจ

๐Ÿ†“ We believe in the healing power of nature, and thanks to our partners, this issue is packed with outdoor inspiration โ€” available for free!

๐Ÿ“” Our cover story explores the rich history of the south face of Yosemiteโ€™s Half Dome. This iconic wall has shaped climbing history with dramatic accidents, daring rescues, and legendary climbs by figures like Warren Harding, Galen Rowell, Steve Bosque, Mike Corbett, and John Middendorf.

๐Ÿ“ธ Cover photo of Tobias Wolf and Oliver Schmidt celebrating with a high five after the first free ascent of Karma on the south face of Half Dome. Photo by Tobias Wolf via time-lapse.

๐Ÿง— Also in this issue, Doug Robinson, known as the โ€œFather of Clean Climbing,โ€ returns with part two of his clean climbing manifesto. His revolutionary ideas, first introduced in the 1972 Chouinard catalog, challenge climbers to reflect on their impact on nature.

๐Ÿ“œBuilding on this theme of responsible climbing, we also highlight the Yosemite Climbing Associations Climberโ€™s Credo, a grassroots agreement developed to address the proposed nationwide fixed anchor prohibition in Wilderness areas. This initiative promotes ethical climbing practices and aims to influence future regulations to preserve access.

๐ŸŒฒ Other stories include the Inyo Mountain Wilderness, solo bikepacking in the Lost Sierra, the indigenous-led effort to restore and paddle the Klamath River, climbing Mexicoโ€™s volcanoes, and the return of great white sharks along Californiaโ€™s coast.

We caught up with Allyson Gunsallus to talk about her project Hand Holds โ€” an interview series to help climbers understand the transition to parenting and parenthood. ๐Ÿง—โ€โ™‚๏ธ

Though the series uses climbing as a lens, it is meant to be useful for all athletes and people transitioning into their new role as a parent. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿง’
