Over the past two winters, Mountain Journal has produced an annual print edition.

We are going to produce a summer edition (due out in January) and would welcome your content.

The plan is to stick with the current format, with a series of sections with specific focus. If you would like to contribute a story/ images, please get in touch.

News from Home

Environmental news from across the Alps. I would love an update on the efforts to manage feral horse populations, commercial development within national parks and World Heritage Areas, and any other local enviro news you would like to share.

Around the Fire – chats with mountain people

These profiles are always popular. For an example of what I’m looking for have a look at this one.

Mountain Culture

What’s happening that’s mountain related: films, print, websites, books, interesting new businesses, events, etc.

Off track

This is intended to be a story on an unusual adventure: in 2021 we had a packrafting trip across the central plateau of Central Tasmania and in 2022 it was an epic rafting descent of the Dargo River.

Photo essay

We will probably go back to the A4 format so photos will look great. The first magazine had a feature on Alpine Ash. I would love to get your proposal for a 4 page spread on any mountain related topic.

Cover

I would love to get a strong mountain related image for use on the cover.

MJ is a 100% volunteer venture so I can’t offer you payment for your work. But you will get to be read by people in special places like Cleve Cole hut and the bakery in Mt Beauty!

I would be looking for content by early December.
