Good but not great

Backpacker covers a wide range of topics of interest to those of us who love backpacking. Sadly it never goes into enough depth and repeats the same places to visit, every few years.

Always look forward to it

Lots of good content. Inspires us to travel. A #sweepstakes win would certainly fund a backcounty trip.

Not as Good As It Used To Be

Unfortunately, the print size has been reduced considerably from just a few years ago. Little tougher to read, for me. Also a bit of a disappointment for me was reading a couple articles that strayed off-topic. I used to enjoy reading Backpacker to get away from all the controversy, but now they have chosen to include unnecessary topics.

Incredible Periodical

I absolutely love Backpacker magazine. I've been a longtime subscriber to the magazine and really enjoy the articles, reviews, and photos. Over the last 5 years, I've used Backpackers equipment reviews to purchase items, reviewed older issues to plan 2 XC road trips across the US and really appreciate the survival/self-discovery stories they publish.

It's a well-rounded, well intentioned magazine. It's not filled with excessive ads, the reviews are impartial, and as mentioned before, the photographs really draw you into the articles as you want to know more about the areas you're viewing.

Well done Backpacker!

Too much propaganda in this publication

Far too many articles that have little to nothing to do with backpacking. It reeks of the leftist agenda propaganda. Was hoping for a magazine that features articles about the wilderness, hiking, exploring and backpacking.

Great magazine

I have subscribed for a good number of years now. I always find it interesting, fun, informative and helpful. As I get older I realize my bucket list will leave some empty buckets behind. The various stories and locations help fill us in for me vicariously by someone else's journey. I also enjoy the review of equipment and have on a number of occasions purchased some of the recommendations. I have not been steered wrong yet.
You can read one or two stories or articles or the entire magazine. It doesn't get old. Many articles or very helpful and informative.
I plan on continuing to be a reader.

Great magazine...great price!

Backpacker magazine subscription through DiscountMags saved me a bunch of $'s! I like to refer to this magazine for guidance on my outdoor adventures. Now, thanks to the discounted price, I'm subscribed for multiple years for less than the normal one year subscription cost.
