Congratulations Crux!
You have once again excelled. I received my (subscription copy) yesterday, and have read it from cover to cover. I think this issue is better than the first, and you have succeeded in publishing a quintessentially Australian magazine, one that celebrates the Australian humour and disregard for authority, and refuses to take itself too seriously.
Once again the Dirtbag Files were both entertaining and informative, the history articles and interviews awe-inspiring, and the Voyeur and Frog Buttress photo galleries were superlative. I particularly enjoyed the interview with Peta Barret, the article on Frog Buttress (to go with the photos) and the Ten Commandments of Wood Training. My only (constructive) criticism is with Doug Hockly's Arapiles update, which seemed a bit cliquey to me. Each to his own, as I'm sure many others would enjoy it.
I am looking forward to the 3rd issue, the Blue Mountains special, as it was where I first learned to climb and remains a favourite place of mine. Hope to see you guys at the climbing festival.
Jason.
I can't wait |
