Mazama magazine, published by the Mazamas, a mountaineering organization based in Portland, Oregon, serves as a platform for outdoor enthusiasts to share their experiences and knowledge. Founded in 1894, the organization focuses on mountaineering education, conservation, and community engagement. The magazine, reflecting these values, features a range of content, including detailed accounts of climbing expeditions, educational articles on climbing techniques and safety, environmental conservation topics, and stories celebrating mountain culture and history. It's a resource for both seasoned climbers and novices, offering insights into the challenges and beauty of mountaineering while fostering a sense of community among its readers.
From this issue: ‘Intro’“The MAZAMAS were organized on the summit of Mount Hood in 1894. The purposes of the club are to explore mountains, to disseminate authoritative and scientific information concerning them and to encourage the preservation of forests and other features of mountain scenery in their natural beauty…”
From this issue: ‘Mt. St. Helens via Moonbase’ “…There was no evidence that the place had ever been used as a campsite before; not a piece of charred wood nor a single rusty can marred the site*. Since the plateau was level enough for a helicopter to land what better name than Moonbase Camp?” Our notes:This particular issue has a striking cover, some delicately detailed illustrations, and excellent storytelling sharing the critical nature of Oregon’s rivers and waterways.
