5 out of 5 stars Best All-Around Outdoor Adventuring Mag   April 25, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've been looking for a good outdoor magazine for some time. Most focus on hunting or fishing, while there's nothing wrong with that, I just don't do those things very much anymore. Some, like Outside, have become political rags written by people who know virtually nothing about the outdoors. Backpacker, however, focuses on hiking and camping like it should. The skills and survival issues are priceless. Sometimes they go overboard on gear reviews, but many are also valuable, better than one I read in Adventure magazine (if you are spending hundreds of dollars on jeans for hiking, something is wrong with you). There's been many good articles on people and places in the hiking and camping world. A great resource for hikers, geocachers, campers and climbers.

I'll never subscribe any other way again. The magazine started arriving exactly when they said it would.


5 out of 5 stars gift was a hit   January 20, 2007

I bought this as a gift for my son-in-law. He loves it. Got it for him 2 years now. Easy gift buying, and he enjoys a present I bought him all year.

This magazine is great and their customer service is awesome. After several mail changes, they sent me magazines that didn't get forwarded to me without any questions. The articles are great and this is one magazine I don't let any of my friends borrow, I'd never get it back. Planning your hikes works very well, but always do your own research. The gear testing articles are top knotch and have saved me mucho dinero.

I used to pick this up regularly until one issue featuring an article listing the most scenic places to defecate was written. I figured by that time, the editorial staff had just about scraped the bottom of the pit toilet not having anything better to write about. Still, there are some good trail write-ups from time to time. They'll have to work harder to get me back though.
