Print content is awful compared to online

I purchased this subscription because Outside's online content is so good. I thought the print publication would provide even more high-quality, in-depth articles. What a disappointment! The long articles ere irrelevant to outdoor pursuits (returning a WWII era sword to deceased owner's family over 70 years later?). Absolutely will not renew print subscription, but still very much enjoying their online content.

Great articles, helpful gear reviews, awesome pictures

I have always enjoyed reading Outside magazine. The articles are always interesting and informative. The gear reviews are helpful in picking new equipment. I love the pictures of beautiful places and adventures. It's overall a great read.

Great magazine, well written, lots of resources, good layout

This is the best outdoors oriented magazine I have found. They have lots of info on trails, hikes, sports, and general things to do in nature. I am always saving stuff from it for future use. #sweepstakes

Okay magazine

Only alternative to Backpacker magazine. I can no longer get a subscription for that. It tells you good places to go but not dedicated to backpacking.

Outdoor Magazine has great adventure stories

I really enjoy the adventure stories and articles about extreme sports. Unfortunately, more space is now devoted to describing luxurious and/or expensive trips. I think encounters with wildlife would be more interesting.

Great writing style

It has been years since I read Outside. I am pleasantly reminded that the writing goes beyond the subjects. The writing style keeps me reading lengthy articles that I normally pass over in favor of looking at the pictures.

Comprehensive and entertaining

Love the articles, pertinent gear reviews, appropriate advertising, would love to see a how to train for_____ page (front/back) and also a feature full page picture of scenery, action or something of the like. Be an Outsider!

Outside

I teach a high school class called Adventure & Survival- this is THE source for highly engaging, well-written articles for my students! I myself subscribed to Outside as a high school student- decades of appreciation. Thanks to all the writers and adventurers :)
