Vertical Life - Edition 50

En este asunto

Our fiftieth issue—Vertical Life #50—is here for autumn ‘25. With a retro cover to celebrate this milestone, inside the mag we look back over the years with one of VL’s founders, Simon Madden. We also take a deep look at the world renown climbing destination of Dyuritte/Arapiles. With the shadow of proposed climbing bans looming, VL chats to some of the crags stalwarts about their decades climbing on some of Australia's best rock. We also look back over the years with a historical photographic special on Arapiles, and Kate Proctor tells us how she got the shot during a “rest day” at The Pines. With Reel Rock 19 headed our way from March, we get behind the scenes and chat to two of the stars of the show, Kai Lightner and Siebe Vanhee. If you’re from the south and it’s getting too cold to climb as autumn sets in, Cal Mathers has a guide to Barron Gorge—the best bouldering north of Brisbane. We get to know two time Olympian Oceana Mackenzie and hear how she keeps climbing fun, despite the intense competition.

The issue also features all the regular content and more to inspire and entertain, with in-depth reviews, training tips, crag coffee, and more. ! It’s guaranteed to make you laugh, think, and climb a little differently.
