Off-Piste Magazine offers a soulful perspective on backcountry skiing and related ski culture. Rooted in touring for turns and the lifestyle of dedicated skiers, our editorial content focuses on the celebration, promotion, and documentation of backcountry ski culture and equipment. We inform and inspire people to get out and explore!

 

Available free at over 250 specialty retail outlets, ski huts, and mountain town coffee houses throughout the mountainous west, our distribution is over 8,000 copies per issue including paid subscriptions. Our 11x17 tabloid format and stout paper stock set us apart from all other ski publications.

 

In addition to the print magazine, we maintain a high quality blog style website that includes regularly updated content highlighting gear, events, conditions, and breaking stories related to backcountry skiing and mountain culture.

 

Regular departments cover ski related news, portraits of core skiers, backcountry safety and etiquette, avalanche education, destination profiles, tales of adventure as well as quality in-depth gear reviews and images of skiing from around the world.

 

Off-Piste strives to inspire and inform readers.
